Fiorentu-Riograndais

Fiorentu-Riograndais(also known by its native name: Gabřieščina) is a South Slavic language strongly influenced by Serbo-Croatian. It is not a language, but a group of 3 languages closely related(Fiorentese, Riograndais and Gabrienese). Fiorentu-Riograndais has a complex morphology, like that of Slavic languages, but the flexional system has been simplified a lot, and now it contains two numbers, seven cases and no genders. Nouns and adjectives are declined the same and numbers follow them.

Nouns, adjectives and numbers
Fiorentu-Riograndais' nouns, adjectives and numbers are declined in a similiar way and follow the same rules. The adjectives should be on the same case on which the noun is while some numbers require the noun in a determined grammatical case.

Exceptions and irregularities
Some nouns are irregular and don't follow the normal declension rules, either by changing internally or by using other endings for cases. The number of irregular nouns is very smaller than the number of irregular words in other slavic languages.

Pronouns
Pronouns decline by number, case and by gender(on the 3rd person of singular only). They are classified in types: Personal, possessive, demonstrative, indefinite and relative.

Personal pronouns
The personal pronouns change by number and case. They follow almost the same pattern as the nouns, but there are some differences.

Possessive pronouns
Possessive pronouns/adjectives are used to indicate possession. They're declined as well and their stem is based on the genitive form of the personal pronouns.

Demonstrative pronouns
There are 3 kinds of demonstrative pronouns in Fiorentu-Riograndais: distal, proximal and medial. They can be used in the place of the determinate articles, as Fiorentu-Riograndais has no articles.
 * Distal is used when the object is far away from the person who talks and to whom talks.
 * Proximal is used when the object is near the person who talks or writes.
 * Medial is used when the object is near the person to whom we're talking.

Reciprocal pronoun and verbal particle se
The pronoun "se" can have two grammatical functions: a reciprocal pronoun and a verbal particle which comes with many verbs. It's declinable when it acts as a reciprocal pronoun, however it's undeclinable if it just follows the verb(there are some verbs which carry it).
