How to make a relational adjective
You have a noun like "'Brassilon'" (Brazil). First you need to ask to yourself "What is related to Brazil?" (Whá mbá relatón ton Brassilon?). Then you remove the syllables, segments or suffixes that are necessary, in our exemple you remove the sufix ''-lon. After that you add the sufix of relation (-leon, -lion, -leonne, -lionne), in your exemple your replace -lon by -leon. So you have 'Brassilon -> Brassileon. '''
