 ### Noun and adjective inflection
 
-TKTK
+Nouns receive a prefix for case and a suffix for number.
+Each gender uses a separate set of case prefixes.
+Adjectives use the same set of number suffixes, and they use the same
+case markers as neuter nouns when modifying a neuter noun.
+Adjectives modifying masculine or feminine nouns use slightly different
+case markers from those used by the noun.
+
+Here are the case prefixes:
+
+| case          | m.noun | m.adj. | f.noun | f.adj. | neuter |
+|---------------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|
+| nominative    | -      | -      | gr-    | gi-    | pl-    |
+| accusative    | de-    | de-    | ge-    | ke-    | po-    |
+| vocative      | tʰo-   | to-    | kʰo-   | ko-    | pl-    |
+| dative        | te-    | ti-    | gn-    | go-    | bo-    |
+| prepositional | dē-    | dē-    | kī-    | kī-    | pō-    |
+
+And the number suffixes, which differ depending on whether the stem
+ends in a vowel or a consonant:
+
+| number   | after vowel | after consonant |
+|----------|-------------|-----------------|
+| singular | -k          | -               |
+| plural   | -hi         | -i              |
