Nouns
There are 9 cases: Nominative, Genitive, Accusative, Dative, Causative, Ablative, Lative, Locative-Prepositional and Instrumental. There are three/four declension patterns:
 * nouns that end in -k can turn into g when a vowel is added in declension, however this is not mandatory in written language, although it is in spoken one.
 * If the suffix starts with s and the root ends with t they merge and become c
 * šeuvet (eagle) > šeuveci (the eagles)
 * Arančək > Arančəge (Aranchea's)
