Describing a Noun

Keep the linker between the adjective and noun when changing their order. Compare ti dakkel nga balay and ti balay nga dakkel, both “the big house.” Initial ti introduces the whole phrase. The grammars establish both orders but do not establish a universal difference in emphasis between them.

This flexibility applies to descriptive adjectives. Numerals normally come before their nouns, demonstratives precede their linked nouns, and noun attributes normally follow. Their position rules should not be inferred from adjective flexibility.

The sources document pluralizing adjective forms and also ordinary adjective forms with plural marking. Learn attested forms rather than mechanically inventing agreement. Finally, Dakkel ti balay, “The house is big,” is a complete clause: dakkel is the predicate, and ti balay is its subject. Its structure differs from the linked noun phrases, which can name a thing without asserting a complete statement.
