Dämmer nouns are inflected in 2 numbers (singular and plural) and 4 cases (nominative, accusative, genitive, instrumental-locative). The language uses SVO order and postpositions like Finnish. The accusative is different from the nominative only for /-m̩/ nouns. In the genitive singular i-umlaut is triggered (a ɛ: ʌ o: ʊ u: aʊ > ɛ i: œ ø: u y: œy), though it is blocked by certain noun suffixes.
 
The Dravidian plural suffix is added as follows:
*nouns in /-m̩/: the /-m̩/ changes to /-ŋɐ/
*after resonants: /-kɐ/
*otherwise: ''-er'' /-ɐ/

Dämmer is *not* pro-drop (like French and German).
in the present tense there are two different paradigms, vowel verbs and consonant verbs. Umlaut may occur in the present tense.
After vowels the present suffix is -ch- /ç/
ßie- [si:] = to do
nehn ßiechen [ne:n si:çn] = I do
nei ßieche [naɪ si:çə] = you do
aben ßiechen [a:bn si:çn] = he does
aber ßiecher [a:bɐ si:çɐ] = she does
att ßieched [at si:çət] = it does
abeŕ ßiecheŕ [abr si:çəɾ] = s/he (honorific) does
nehŋer ßiechem [ne:ŋɐ si:çm] = we (exc) do
nehm ßiechem [ne:m si:çm] = we (exc) do
neiŋer ßiecheŕg [naɪŋɐ si:çəɾk] = you folks do
aŕger ßiecheŕg [aɾgɐ si:çəɾk] = you folks do
eicher ßiechen [aɪçɐ si:çn] = they do
After consonants the present suffix is -g- /k/:
wehr- [we:ɐ] = to live
nehn wëhrgen [wi:ɐkn] = I live
nei wëhrge [wi:ɐkə] = you live
etc.
In the past tense, the personal endings are added to the suffix -d-.
nehn ßieden [si:tn] = I did
nei ßiede = you did
...
In the future tense, the suffix -b- is used (from fortition of older -v- after stressed syllables).
nehn ßieben [si:pn] = I'll do
nei ßiebe = you'll do
...
