Grammar Edit

Nouns Edit

Nouns only have plural and direct object forms, direct nouns get an -em ( -m if the noun ends on a vowel), and get -er (-r if the noun ends on a vowel) before it, if they're plural. As said, indirect object also get -er ending for plural.

Articles Edit

Articles are always placed before the noun and adjective. The articles are de for indirect singular, dem for direct singular, der for indirect plural and dem for direct plural.

Adjectives Edit

Adjectives are placed before the noun. Adjectives take the same endings as nouns for the same purposes so they change according to the noun after it, with plural and direct forms. And also have the same ending rules, that change depending on the ending.

Pronouns Edit

*The ending in brackets are for plural

Personal Accusative Direct Accusative Indirect Possessive Direc Eg Mie Mem Mijn(er) Mijn(er)em Du Die Dem Dijn(er) Dijn(er)em Hie Hie Hem Hijn(er) Hijn(er)em Zie Zie Zem Zijn(er) Zijn(er)em Dat Dat Dam Datijn(er) Datijn(er)em Vie Os Osem Oser(er) Oser(er)em Jo Jo Jiem Jijn(er) Jijn(er)em Die Die Dem Dier(er) Dier(er)em

Verbs Edit

There are no conjugations, only normal tenses, meaning that, there are no simple, continuous, perfect and imperfect etc.

Infinitives get -en ending.

Present tense is formed by removing the -en ending from the verb.

Past tense is formed by putting had (Have) before the infinitive.

Future tense is formed by putting geen (To Go) before the present form.

Conditional is formed by adding vud (Would) before the infinitive.

Grass - grassSubjunctive is formed by adding vud gevaler (Would like) before the infinitive

Imperative has the same form as infinitive.

Participle is formed by adding -da to the verb root. Only used as an adjective

Gerund Du var in mijn haus. (You are in my house). Eg ge mijnem materem seen. (I go see my mom)is formed by adding -ing to the verb root. Only used as a verbal noun.

Verbs are made negative by adding nie before the verb.

*The verb To Be in its present form is never used, like in Russian, meaning that e.g. Eg göd, instead of Eg var göd, also in its future form it would be Eg geen göd, and not Eg geen var göd.

Questions Edit
