			=== Nouns ===

			There is no number; any noun can be singular or plural. You'll have to try and figure it out from context.

== Grammar notes ==

Basics:

* The construction '''yuo … -va/-ua''' means ''even though''.
* The glosses ''sunshine'', ''nightfall'' and ''timepass'' are verbs, not nouns.
* The gloss ''contént'' has been marked with an accent to clarify that it refers to the English adjective, not the noun. Also means ''thankful'' or ''accept''.
* The word glossed as ''consider'' refers generally to celebral activities such as ''thinking'', ''considering'' and ''understanding''.

=== Verbs ===

All verbs are marked for indicative or optative; if no such marker exists, the word is not a verb. There is no tense, only perfective (telic) and imperfective (atelic) verbs.

Stative verbs (with adjectival meanings), and some other verbs, generally take on a causative meaning when transitive (having an object).

On verbs, subjects/agents are marked as suffixes and objects/patients as prefixes (see deixis for this kind of marking).

=== Deixis ===

Instead of person, the language uses deixis: neutral, proximal and distal. They are similar to demonstratives like ''this'' and ''that'' or ''here'' and ''there''. The deictic centre of a sentence is established my marking a noun for deixis or using a deictic pronoun, and corresponding markers on the verb are then taken to agree with it. To approach the function of personal pronouns in other languages, other words are used, such as personal names, or expressions like ''"the people here"''.

=== Relations ===

Instead of relative pronouns, a relative marker '''-uʔ''' as well as syntactic markers (similar to case, such as the locative) are used. On a noun, the locative means ''at <noun>'' but on a verb it means ''where they (or other person) <verb>''. Relativised verbs can work like attributive adjectives in English, as they effectively translate relative clauses such as ''(the one) who is/does <verb>''.
