Adjectives follow the nouns they qualify, and take the same inflections: Thur bitthe, ‘a tall man’; Thuru betthegu murrawi gume, ‘a tall man hit a kangaroo’; Thurgu bitthegu bier, ‘a tall man’s boomerang’.

When the last letter of the noun affects a euphonic modification on the suffix, as indicated above, the causative and the genitive sometimes resemble each other as in the last two examples. In that case, ambiguity is avoided by the sense of the phrase.

The comparison is made by positive assertions, such as: Nginya yedda, nginya wurrai, ‘this one is good, this one is bad’.

If an adjective is used as a predicate, it can be converted into a verb by adding the necessary suffixes and conjugated accordingly. For example: Yeddadhu, I am good (good me); Yeddagedhu, I was good; Yeddagalagadhu, I will be good; and so it follows for all persons, numbers and tenses.
