 Due to loss of word-final consonants and consequently vowels, which is a feature of eastern Admiralties languages, the language allows consonants in the syllable coda and has many monosyllabic words with CVC form.The two major open word classes are noun and verb (with a major subclass of stative verbs), with adjectives and adverbs as minor classes distinguished from both noun and verb and from each other.Verb to noun and verb to adjective derivations are very common, but not vice versa.
