Nouns

Number

Numbers aren't normally distinguished, but there are some plural markers if it is necessary to distinguish. These suffixes are -si and -mhi.

Case

There is no morphological case. Postpositions are used for case marking.

Adjective

Adjectives follow the noun, and the suffix -wa/-ya is attached to a modified noun. If the modified noun is plural, -sa is attached. Any verb can function as a noun.
