Sentences consist of a subject and content parts acting as a predicate, adjective or object. Content parts are separated from the subject by the question they answer.
- ayowl dot? - what am I doing?
- ayowl dot drim`i - I sleep.
Sentences are separated by a dot and a particle of time is placed at the end, but for convenience, you can not put a particle of time if the previous sentence has a particle of the same time, or replace it with a content part.
- ayowl dot drim`i niw . yoy dot spiar`i niw - I am sleeping now. You're talking now.
- ayowl dot drim`i yet . yoy dot spiar`i - I was asleep. You were talking.
- ayowl dot drim`i at neybl - I sleep at night.
If there are several content parts in the sentence related to the same subject, then they are separated by a semicolon. Exception - en and ale.
- ayowl dot wioko`i ma spor niw - the first content part is related to ayowl and the second part is related to wioko
- adpromet ma medi; arch wuic phur - both parts related to adpromet
