Nouns

When one is learning the language, or perhaps being lazy, to form a noun the simplest way is to add -a to whatever it is you want to make a noun. For example, Bhal (to talk, speak) ---> bhala (language, speech, talk.)

Ansann(a)* - Teenager
Bhen - Sky, air
Kåchata, Kåfala - Night
Kåbhen - Moon
Elabhi - Thought, smarts
Misann(a)- Child
Privsann(a) - Adult
Sanna - Person
Wuchata, Wufala - Day
Wubhen - Sun
