Adjectives are declined like nouns, but have no comparative or superlative degree; the former being expressed by prefixing the intensitive syllable _ca_, the latter, when used (which is but seldom) by the prefix _ela_, signifying _the_ in an emphatic sense, as his Grace of Wellington is in England called _The_ Duke _par excellence_.

Prepositions and adverbs end in _t_ or _d_.
Each form of the noun has, as a rule, its special relation to the verb of the same root: thus from dac, "strike," are derived _daca_, "weapon" or "hammer;", _daco_, a "stroke" or "striking" [as given] both masculine; _daca_, "anvil;" _dacoo_, "blow" or "beating" [as received]; and _dake_, "a thing beaten," feminine.

The sixth form, _daky_, masculine, has in this case no proper signification, and not being wanted, is not used.

Individual letters or syllables are largely employed in combination to give new and even contradictory meanings to a root.

Thus _n_, like the Latin _in_, signifies "penetration," "motion towards," or simply "remaining in a place," or, again, "permanence." _M_, like the Latin _ab_ or _ex_, indicates "motion from." _R_ expresses "uncertainty" or "incompleteness," and is employed to convert a statement into a question, or a relative pronoun into one of inquiry.
