| === Rising tone {{tone|2}} ===
| |
| Makes a noun phrase out of the first slot of a verb:
| |
|
| |
| {{t|pỏq}} = ___ is a person => {{t|póq}} = "the person(s)"
| |
|
| |
| {{t|cả}} = ___ causes ___ => {{t|cá}} "the cause(s)"
| |
|
| |
| If a noun for the second slot is needed, use {{t|mú}} and the verb form of the word.
| |
|
| |
| {{t|cả}} => {{t|mú cả}} "the thing(s) that was caused"
| |
| </div>
| |
|
| |
| <div class="cheat-sheet-card">
| |
| === Rising-creaky tone {{tone|3}} ===
| |
| Attaches a relative clause to a preceding noun.
| |
|
| |
| Inside the phrase, {{t|hóa}} refers to the noun attached to. {{t|cy}} ends the clause.
| |
|
| |
| *{{t|póq düa <u>hóa</u> cy}} = "the people <u>who</u> know"
| |
| *{{t|níaı mäı <u>hóa</u> jí cy}} = "the animal <u>who</u> loves me"
| |
| *{{t|níaı mäı jí <u>hóa</u> cy}} = "the animal <u>whom</u> I love"
| |
|
| |
| {{t|cy}} is not necessary if the word that immediately follows can terminate the content clause. For example, {{t|cy}} is not needed before {{t|da}} because {{t|da}} already ends the sentence.
| |
| </div>
| |
|
| |
| <div class="cheat-sheet-card">
| |
| === Falling tone {{tone|4}} ===
| |
| Main verb.
| |
|
| |
| *{{t|<u>Mảı</u> jí súq da.}} = "I love you."
| |
|
| |
| Also marks any non-initial word in a serial. In serials (think "unit" of words), only the first word of the serial changes tone. The rest stays in {{tone|4}}. In the example below, only the word {{t|kúo}} changes to {{tone|2}}. The remaining {{t|kảto}} is in {{tone|4}}.
| |
| *{{t|Mải jí <u>kúo kảto</u> da.}} = "I love the black cat."

|

| |
| === Peaking tone {{tone|5}} ===
| |

| |
| *{{t|Dủa jí <u>ôcha jí cy</u> da.}} = "I know that I am human."
| |
| *{{t|Keo shảo jí <u>nîaı jí cy</u> da.}} = "But I want to be an animal."
| |
|
| |
| {{t|cy}} is not always needed for the same reason as the rising-creaky tone {{tone|3}}.
| |
| </div>
| |
|
| |
| <div class="cheat-sheet-card">
| |
| === Mid-falling tone {{tone|6}} ===
| |
| A [[preposition]], which makes an [[adverbial]] with the following noun phrase.
| |
|
| |
| It can go before or after the arguments to the main verb.
| |
|
| |
| * {{t|nèo míao}} = "on the moon"
| |
| * {{t|Kỏy jí súq <u>nèo míao</u>.}} = "I talk to you on the moon."

| === Conjunctions ===
| |
| Logical conjunctions connect any parts of speech, with a "logic and/or/xor" meaning:
| |
| * {{t|<u>Gỉ ra dẻ</u> baq kảto da.}} = "Cats are good '''and/or''' beautiful."
| |
| * {{t|<u>Gỉ ro hủı</u> baq hảq da.}} = "Food is '''either''' good '''or''' bad."
| |
| * {{t|Rẻı <u>súq ru jí</u> múao.}} = "You '''and''' I surround the tree." (Both I do, and you do.)
| |
|
| |
| {{t|roı}} is special, and ''combines'' nouns it connects:
| |
| * {{t|Rẻı <u>súq roı jí</u> múao.}} = "You '''and''' I '''(together)''' surround the tree."
| |
|
| |
| {{t|rı}} is used in questions:
| |
|
| |
| * {{t|Kảqgaı súq <u>káto rı kúne</u> moq?}} = "Do you see a cat '''or''' a dog?"

| |
|
| |
| {{t|mı}} is placed before a name.
| |
|
| |
| If you are addressing someone, {{t|hu}} should be added before the name.
| |
|
| |
| * {{t|Hu mí Hỏemaı, lả hỉo ka}} = "Hello, Hoemaı".
| |
|
| |
| Remember to add some separation between the name and the following sentence with {{t|lả}} or something similar.

| |
| === Asking questions ===

|
| |
| * {{t|Mỉ Hỏemaı súq da.}} = "You are Hoemaı."

| |
|
| |
| {{t|hı}} 'what, which', {{t|tıopuı}} 'how many' may be used to ask non-yes/no questions. Note that {{t|hı}} is a determiner.
