Other Standard suffixes:
Atan -- House/Home
ada – Pluralizes a noun / Atanada -- Houses/Homes
uda – Denotes singularity of a noun / Atanuda – [The/A] House/Home (Recognized as singular)
e' – Possessive form for a noun-- Also equates a pronoun with its possessive form (I.e. He/Him -> His) / Atanudae' – [The/A] House's/Home's / Atanadae' – [Those/The] Houses'/Homes'
Basic Sentence Structure:
The sentence structure used is Subject-Object-Verb.
ex.: Ae'Catoluda tura. |[Literal Translation] “Brown Book(Recognized as singular) is.”
Since “the” is absent from Rashazhani, it is instead found through recognizing that a noun is singular. So the singular-specific form of Catole [Book] is Catoluda.
You should also notice that the last vowel “e” is cut off of the root word. This happens often.
Now Ae, or Brown, is a prefixed adjective appended with an apostrophe for readability. So with the adjective prefixed and the singularity-recognizing suffixed, we end up with a nearly completely different root; Ae'Catoluda.
Tura means “is”-- it's the verb of the sentence.
ex. Hazan rudon sornal nafahere aleiro.
Literal translation: “We food outside waited for.”
“We” being the subject; “food” being the object; and “Waited” being the verb. “Outside”, being the adverb and coming before the verb. “For” being the preposition.
