Nouns
Ancient Fãngra nouns are declined for seven cases and two numbers. Only the subject and objective cases are distinguished in terms of number. These are prefixed on the noun, while other cases function similar to prepositions. For example:
 * An-folão hai pilu li hulu in-dirgim. — The father winked at the man. (lit. The father gave the man a blink.)
