== Introduction ==

{{SUBPAGENAME}} merges the object and the patient of low-volition intransitive verbs (Ø), but distinguishes the subject of a high-agency intransitive verb (S) and the agent of a transitive verb (A). Nouns follow their modifiers but precede any genitive relation. Pronominal affixes are an exception, they attach to the left. Phonetically reduced forms of pronouns and verbs must come in the second position in a sentence. Word order is relatively free with new information tending towards the front of the utterance.

There are two primary sets of pronoun morphs: the enclitics (su, qar, du, …) and the bound ones (nu, uyus, Ø). The distinctions are not equal, the enclitics distinguish singular and plural in addition to person, whereas the bound forms are the same for any number. Additionally, the third person is zero-marked in the bound form. A mild amount of suffixaufnahme is permitted.

Transfixes of vowels will be indicated in the gloss after a colon ''':''', e.g. ''qizi'' ‘happiness’ glossed as {{Gentium|happy:{{sc|nmlz.II}} }} for the vowel transfix i-i.

== Notes ==

*DU
*:The du-affix promotes the object to S and the agent to dative, deemphasising the agency of the original agent. Often carries a semantic benefactive tone.
*ge-headed topical clause
*:Pushes a phrase into a topic-comment structure.
*kurum kurum
*:Again and again, still, always, yet
*The markers for A and S are enclitic and will attach to a whole NP.
