Adjective?
Is it proper to call this an adjective? I understand that in Navajo usually there are no adjectives per se, but the understanding that a living thing or inanimate object is "being" large or "being" black, etc. 71.66.97.228 08:46, 11 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Yes, it’s better to consider tsoh an adjective and nitsaa a verb. Often there is disagreement about parts of speech. Many words that are commonly called nouns may technically be considered verbs. However, there is a sense that monosyllabic nouns underlie a lot of the vocabulary. Some of the forms of the verb include, , , , . But the noun suffix tsoh is not a verb form. —Stephen 03:31, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

Also "tall"?
Can this also mean "tall," as in Tʼą́ą́tsoh? 71.66.97.228 02:54, 15 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Yes, it means big, but by extension it can mean tall, grown, etc. —Stephen 03:15, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
