This is the first topic on basic patterns and structures of Greenlandic.
"ATTRIBUTE VERBS"
To express the character or nature of a certain thing or person, you mostly use "attribute verbs", which are like an adjective + is

mikivoq = something is small.
qimmeq = dog
qimmeq mikivoq = the dog is small.
Easy, isn't it?
Now, if you want to put this as a question, the ending of the attribute verb changes:
qimmeq mikiva? = is the dog small?
You can answer with:
suu = yes
naa(mik) = no
How to say that the dog is not small will be in another lesson

But we can try plural:
qimmit mikipput = the dogs are small.
You see that the ending of the attribute verb changes from -voq to -pput.
For the plural question form it changes to -ppat:
qimmit mikippat? = are the dogs small?
Right, that's it for now
