adjectives take an adjectival ending and must follow the noun they modify
unlike Petaylish in which possessive adjectives take a noun ending and may
follow or precede the noun they modify

numbers take an “n” ending regardless of part of speech, in Petaylish Two, numbers
take the ending of the part of speech that they are acting as. There is also a
slight change to the number system.
