Particle Syntax:

  1. The particle 'wa', meaning 'to be', can be placed after a subject (if present), OR naturally at the end of a sentence or phrase.

e.g., ve kanin vana wa. (if you want a dog.

  1. Defnite articles exist in the language, however only for honorific prefixing, namely tal',kal', t' and k', all meaning "the". 'tal' itself can be a standalone article for a/an/the, however it is almost always omitted from standard speech.

  2. Prepositions go before the item of interest, not after, just like English.

e.g., soto dovan (under the door, not door under. )
