Basic Grammar
Nouns are inflected according to case and number. The cases are Nominative, Genitive, and Accusative. Nouns governed by prepositions are inflected in accusative.

Regular nouns inflect as follows:

Sing:

Nominative : 0 / V

Genitive : -es / `es

Accusative : -un / `un

Plur:

Nominative : -s

Genitive : -'ses

Accusative : -uns

"-en and -ren plurals" nouns are inflected

Nominative : 0

Genitive : -'es

Accusative : -un

Plur:

Nominative : -(r)en

Genitive : -'(r)enes

Accusative : -(r)enun

E.g. : chiild chiildes chiildun - children chiildrenes chiildrenun

Nouns with identical singular and plural are inflected as if singular.
