In Bibical Aramaic, adjectives follow the :ref:`noun<noun>` they describe and match that noun in
|
|
gender (:ref:`masculine<gender_masculine>` or :ref:`feminine<gender_feminine>`)
|
|
and number (:ref:`singular<number_singular>` or :ref:`plural<number_plural>`).
|
|
However, there are some exceptions to this rule. If a noun is :ref:`dual<number_dual>`,
|
|
its accompanying adjective will be plural. Also, the gender of some
|
|
nouns does not match their apparent form (as in אֶבֶן, meaning "stone," which is
|
|
grammatically-feminine although it appears grammatically-masculine). In
|
|
these cases, an accompanying adjective will match the gender of the noun
|
|
itself rather than the apparent form. Also, for nouns with :ref:`collective singular<number_singular-collective>`
|
|
(as in עַם, meaning "people"), the accompanying adjective may match the implied number rather than the apparent form.
