Central Kurdish Grammar - Adjectives

Hi Central Kurdish learners! 😊
In today's lesson, we will be discussing adjectives in Central Kurdish. Adjectives are words that describe or modify nouns and pronouns. They can be used to give more information about the noun or pronoun they are modifying. In this lesson, we will look at how adjectives are formed in Central Kurdish, as well as how they are used in sentences.

Formation of Adjectives

Adjectives in Central Kurdish are formed by adding suffixes to nouns and verbs. The suffixes used depend on the gender and number of the noun or pronoun being modified.

Masculine Singular

For masculine singular nouns and pronouns, the suffix -î is added to the end of the word. For example:

  • xwendin (student) → xwendinî (studious)
  • zarok (child) → zarokî (childish)

Feminine Singular

For feminine singular nouns and pronouns, the suffix -e is added to the end of the word. For example:

  • kur (dog) → kure (doggy)
  • xanî (woman) → xanîe (womanly)

Masculine Plural

For masculine plural nouns and pronouns, the suffix -an is added to the end of the word. For example:

  • dost (friend) → dostan (friendly)
  • kes (person) → kesan (personable)

Feminine Plural

For feminine plural nouns and pronouns, the suffix -in is added to the end of the word. For example:

  • zarok (children) → zarokin (childlike)
  • xanî (women) → xanîin (womanly)

Usage of Adjectives

Adjectives in Central Kurdish are usually placed after the noun or pronoun they are modifying. For example:

  • zarokî bêxem (childish behavior)
  • kesan xweş (personable people)

Adjectives can also be used to form adverbs. To do this, the suffix -bûn is added to the end of the adjective. For example:

  • xwendinî (studious) → xwendinîbûn (studiously)
  • zarokin (childlike) → zarokinbûn (childishly)
