Adjectives

nga-mak I-good I'm healthy
 * Adjectives carry prefixes to agree with the gender of the noun, e.g. manmak manme good food, bininj nakimuk big man
 * Sometimes the choice of adjective reveals a non-default gender, e.g. manwalarr kundulk tall tree
 * We can use adjectives predicatively, in a pronoun-adjective, noun-adjective, or a pronoun-noun-adjective construction:

kundulk-yahwurd tree-small a small tree

ka-bolk-rohrok it-country-similar it's a similar place

nungka keb-kimuk-ni he nose-big-PAST he had a big nose
 * Tense marker -ni can also attach to the end of the adjectival construction:
