Numbers
A thing to keep in mind is this language is base-12 based

Noun Derivations
to say the one who did the verb, "the one who sailed" for example one simply adds the suffix fitting from the noun declension onto the voice-mood word. if one wish to say for example "the one who ate my sandwish" one would put the "my sandwich" infront of the other, "my sandwich the one who ate"

Personal Pronouns
Umbrean have many persinal pronouns for various situations and the choice is critical in conversation as wrong choice can be considered an insult.

Adjective
Adjectives are none-existent in umbrean as they are treated as verbs, one doesnt say "The red cat" but "The cat is red" and is done like with any normal verb so it doesnt need to fit along with the noun declenisaion. The big differens ebtween adjectives and normal verbs is that unlike verbs where you put multiple tense/aspect words into the sentence only one tense/aspect word is placed after adjectives even if there is multiple adjectives. "the big red cat" wouldnt be said as "the cat is big is red" nor "the cat is big and red" but "The cat is big red" or more presicely "the cat big red is"

Postposition
Umbrean uses post position after the clause or word in question, "table on" "going out her with" and it is ended by noun declension that fits the meaning of it in the verb it takes on if it takes on any particular one


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

!Postposition !Meaning !Example
 * De
 * Of, ownership
 * Yx
 * Around, nearby
 * Ejnaf
 * Because, for the reason that

 * Ejnaf
 * Because, for the reason that

 * Because, for the reason that
 * }
 * }

Coordinating conjunctions
Connecting to parts is done like in english, X and Y, X or Y
 * {|class="wikitable" style="text-align: center;"

 * }

Adverbs
Adverbs are formed by replacing the tempus-aspect word with "Ja"and leave out the voice-mood word unless it is per definition already an adverb. They are placed infront of the verb and comperatived the same way as adjectives.

Time Manner Place
Umbrean says things in the order of Time manner place rather than english Place Manner Time

Modality
Ways to form modality in a sentence in Umbrean compared to english

Unlike in english these dont differ relative to the tense in which they are used but the verbs tense tells what tense

 * I know + Billy made a mistake
