Nouns
Kosovejanu has three genders (feminine, masculine and neuter). There're four declensions: first declension nouns are feminine, second and third ones are masculine and forth one are neuter. The gender is also determined by the ending of the word: if a word ends in "-a" is feminine, if it ends in a consonant, in "-o" or "-u" is masculine, if it ends in "-e" is neuter. There are five cases: Nominative (subject), Genitive (possession), Dative (term), Accusative (direct object) and Ablative (with prepositions it forms all the other complements).

First Declension
As said before, first declension nouns end in "-a" and are mostly feminine. Here's an example of the first declension noun doma "house"

Second Declension
Second declension nouns end in consonant and are mostly masculine. Here's the second declension noun puel "boy"

Third Declension
The third declension nouns are '''only masculine. '''Third declension is dived in two groups: the first group nouns end in "-o", second ones end in "-u".

First Group
Here's the first group noun omo "man"

Second group
Here's the second group noun didu "finger"

Fourth Declension
Fourth Declension nouns end in "-e" and are mostly neuter and are mostly inanimate objects and abstract concept. Here's the fourth declension noun anime "mind"

Adjectives
Like nouns, adjectives have three genders (masculine, feminine and neuter). Unlike nouns, they don't have cases and they must agree with the noun only in gender and number.

Declension
Unlike the other genders, masculine has three different endings for the singular form, but not all the adjectives have the three forms. Most adjectives that end in a consonant have only the basic consonant ending, while most adjectives that end in a vowel have the two vowel endings. These three endings are: "-ø", "-o" and "-u". The masculine endings depend on the declension of the noun:
 * The -ø ending is good for all the masculine names
 * If the adjective has only the -u and the -o endings it follows determinate rules: the -u go with every masculine noun, the -o only go with the 3rd declension first group nouns

Negation
You can negate almost every adjectives by adding the -nje suffix: bel > belnje "not beautiful". The difference between this two sentences, "Ne seas bel" and "Seas belnje", is basically the emphasis, because they both mean "You are not beautiful", but NOT "You are ugly", this structure, in fact, only negate the adjectives, but it doesn't form the opposite of it.

Adverbs
Most adjectives can be turned into adverbs by adding the -(j)e suffix to the basic form of the adjective. If it ends in a vowel, switch the vowel with -e: velos "fast" > velose "quickly".
