Nouns are marked with a singular-plural distinction, and may also take possessive suffixes. However, the lemma form of a noun is typically its combining form, which is the incorporated form of a noun and is also used to form possessed forms and compounds. Unlike in Thensarian and its descendants, the [[Proto-Talmic]] grammatical gender was lost; pronouns and gender verb affixes no longer mark grammatical gender, but natural gender (as in [[Naquian]]). | Nouns are marked with a singular-plural distinction, and may also take possessive suffixes.
