3. NOUNS AND DEMONSTRATIVES Slovio nouns (as in English), don't have any grammatical gender. They can end in any vowel or consonant. There are no cases. If there is a need to distinguish between subject and object, an object ends with -(u)f. In normal sentences object follows subject and in such cases it is not necessary to add the -(u)f ending. Plural nouns end with -(i)s, in the object form with -(i)fs Examples: Subject: Kto? Sxto? (Who? What?) Object: Ktof? Sxtof? (Whom? What?) 4.
