So now you know how to do Transitive sentences, Intransitive sentence and have an indirect object in both of them. Meaning you know what is called a tripartite language (Subjects and objects in all 2 cases are marked differently as seen). But as we all know that is not enough, you need to be able to stick adjectives on nouns and thats what we will go through here. =Adjectives= If youve learned something so far you should not expect this being a dance on roses and correct it is not. Just like english one would say "The black tooth" so is it said in umbrean

! colspan=4 |Tyciuvö döndius' ! colspan=4 | A black/dark tooth as one notice in this example the adjective (Tyci) takes on an ending which must matche the noun in everything but the case, the gender, number and definitiveness. Fortunately adjectives have no inheritated gender and simply takes on the suffix matching the gender of the noun. Down here is a list of the ones used for the base, as in not comperative (redder) or superlative (reddest)
