The prepositional is the object of a preposition. The genitive is used to show ownership or show the properties or material of something. Words are inflected for number, case, and gender. Parenthesis indicate that the vowel is only present if the word ends in a consonant.

The word for mushroom, 'Adarc', in the plural is 'Àdarc'. The word for tree, 'cod', in the plural is 'ċòd'. The genitive marker if needed can also be added to the end of the word, as is the case with masculine words as well.
