          | The 
              adjectives mark the gender and number of the noun morphologically. 
              As noted above, the nouns are marked only for number and not for 
              gender. There are three distinct gender markers for the four gender 
              number classes, viz., masculine singular, feminine singular, masculine 
              plural and feminine plural. The markers for these four classes respectively 
              are -o, -i, -e and -i. Since there are not separate suffixes for 
              singular and plural, it may be said, that the feminine nouns do 
              not make number distinction as it is found in the masculine nouns.
