Word type
The different kind of words distinguished
are: verb, noun, pronoun, adjective, adverb,
preposition, and conjunction. In the list
interjections of one or more words are
included.
In some cases words may have more than one
function, while in other cases the function
is even more limited, for example, may only
be used as predicative adjective. This will
be indicated in the list.
In addition if a word functions as personal
pronouns, reflexive pronoun, cardinal number or
ordinal number this is specifically mentioned.
Verbs that take the direct object
afterwards are indicated
with a [#], see
symbols.
Nouns have two main singular forms,
indefinite and definite. The idea of a definite
article (the) is expressed by either the vowel
"a" or "o" on the end of the noun in the
singular (see
Lesson 1.D.2. As there does not seem to be
any rule for whether to add or change this
definite indicator, the indefinite and the
definite singular of all nouns are given in the
vocabularies, as far as known.
Adjectives have have three forms: the
predicate adjective, the indefinite singular
attributive adjective, and the definite singular
adjective. As far as available these a given in
the vocabularies and indicated by [*], see
symbols.
