Structure[]
Gender[]
In Paradoris all words have gender as in many other languages, there are feminine and masculine nouns. Feminine nouns end in a, and masculine nouns either don't end in a vowel, or end in e,i,o,or u. Adjetives have to match in gender and in number to the noun they describe, for example in the phrase un pomiro means one apple, if there were more tn one apples then the phrase would be unos pomiros. Another phrase, una éida, means one house, the phrase unas éidas, mean some houses.
Articles[]
There are two main articles in Paradoris. Un/Una (a), and Li/La (the), and their plural forms, Unos/Unas and Lis/Las. Examples include Li autómobil, Lis autómobiles, and La éida, Las éidas.
Cases[]
Paradorese has four cases wich are used on nouns. The first case is the Nominatvie, and used on the subject noun of the sentence, it is the dictionary form. The second case is the Daitive, it is used when directly talking to a noun. Such as if you were to say the name of the person you are talking to. The Genetive case shows possesion. It would be used f you were saying Andrea's flowers, this case could be bypassed by saing flowers of Andrea. The last case is the Accussative, and it is used on the object of the sentence. Each case has its own ending.
Nominative- Dictionary form
Daitive- take off vowel if ends in one and add "eas", take off end vowel if there is one.
Genative- take off vowel if ends in one and add "a", if ends in a add "ai"
Accussative- take off vowel if ends in one and add "e", unless it ends in an "a", then take off "a" and add "eu".
So the word "pomiro" for apple becomes either pomireas, pomira, or pomire depending on how the word is used in the sentence. The name Disimón becomes either Disimóneas, Disimona, or Disimóne. And the name Marsala becomes either Marsaleas, Marsalai, or Marsaleu.
Plural forms[]
There only three rules for making words plural. When a word doesn´t end in a vowel, just add es. When a does word ends in a vowel just add s. Examples are autómobiles and éidas. The last rule is barely used, in words such as ríses (rice), where there are two syllables of es or is or as, etc., to make the word plural, add ai. So the plural form of ríses is rísesai (pronounced ree-es-eye)
