Umbrean/Lessons/02 Simple Sentences

=Introduction= Now that you know a few simple usable phrases it might be more interesting in making your own sentences. So we will start with simple sentences containing only the subject and the verb.

As these concepts will be used alot through this course here is a description of them
 * {|class="wikitable" style="text-align: center;"

! colspan=2 | Term ! Description ! Example ! colspan=2 | Subject ! colspan=2 | Verb ! rowspan=2 | Object ! Direct ! Indirect
 * The entity in a sentence doing the verb
 * Mary kissed john
 * The action in a sentence
 * You kissed him
 * The thing that is directly affected by the verb
 * I gave you a flower
 * The entity that is indirectly affected by the verb
 * I gave you a flower
 * }

=Lesson= A verb that only takes on a subject are known as intransitive verbs and as mentioned may only take subject and no direct object, though they can take indirect objects which will be discussed later.


 * {|class="wikitable" style="text-align: center;"

! # ! English Example ! 1 ! 2 ! 3
 * Mary fell
 * I walked
 * Steven whispered
 * }

Just a few examples of english ones, simple sentences indeed and that is what will be used here. But here is where the tricky stuff starts none the less.

In Umbrean nouns and names, yes even of people, are declined in accordance to their purpose in the sentence and in these examples the nouns would take on the "intransitive case", not that hard to guess now is it?


 * {|class="wikitable" style="text-align: center;"


 * }
 * }


 * {|class="wikitable" style="text-align: center;"
