-------
|
||||
|
||||
The names of spoken languages are the only terms that are considered by this grammar as proper "gentilic adjectives".
|
||||
However, Aramaic scholars disagree concerning which terms should be called gentilic nouns or gentilic adjectives. This is
|
||||
because most gentilics in Biblical Aramaic can legitimately be classified as either nouns or adjectives.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note:: Some :ref:`gentilic nouns<noun_gentilic>` that follow nouns in the
|
||||
absolute state function like :ref:`attributive adjectives<adjective-attributive>`.
|
||||
Some scholars call these gentilic adjectives as well (for example, "Ruth the Moabitess").
