Triparic Grammar: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 14:00, 7 April 2016

In March 2016 we're cleaning up the language yet again. This time for sure. Presto!

Adjectives usually precede the nouns they modify, but are rarely placed afterwards, for effect:

gute morgen "good morning"
alta rol "high office"
but tempos conects "contiguous times"

Most adjectives form their comparatives and superlatives with the adverbs ply "more" and plä "most":

ply alta "higher" plä lange "longest"

Adjectives agree with their nouns in number:

tempos conects "contiguous times" duväds miăs "black cats"

Note that some adjectives are plural only:

alle mensches "all men"

Some adjectives have irregular comparative and superlative forms:

gute, besser, ...

... but should they??

-The relative pronoun is '''velk''':
