Adjectives and Adverbs
1 min read · 142 words
In ütkupanä, adjectives and verbs are quite simple at least relative to some aspects of the language.
Adjectives agree with the case of the nouns they describe through a very regular process. Every adjective takes a suffix based on which (unscientific) category the noun’s case is in. These categories are abstract, which includes the nominative, accusative, and dative cases, non-physical, which includes genitive, instrumental, benefactive, vocative, and causative cases, and finally physical, which includes the locative ablative, and comitative cases. I have created a paradigm for these suffixes.
Almost all adverbs in ütkupanä have been turned into suffixes. These suffixes are very simple and are never modified.
Finally, adjectives can be turned into stative-verbs by adding the suffixes -ënä and -ünu. -Ënä is used when the adjective describes a physical quality and -ünu is used when the adjective describes a nonphysical quality.
