Sentence structure:
Nouns have a SUBSubject (argument) and PATPatient (role)
recipient or target of event/action marker. The SUBSubject (argument) maker is xi while the PATPatient (role)
recipient or target of event/action marker is ṛṛi. However "i" become "u" if it is possessive. So SUBSubject (argument).POSSPossessive (case)
owns, has maker is xu while the PATPatient (role)
recipient or target of event/action.POSSPossessive (case)
owns, has marker is ṛṛu.
Verbs have SUBSubject (argument), PATPatient (role)
recipient or target of event/action, and TRTransitive (valency)
has two arguments markers. These are marked with vowel changes. For example
SUBSubject (argument) a
PATPatient (role)
recipient or target of event/action, i
TRTransitive (valency)

The vowel u for when responding to a question or if its being used in a list of verbs.
Because of the markers word order is not that important but you must always have the root word begin or end a sentence. Particals cannot start or end a sentence.

1. purpose
2. color
3. material
4. size
