Chakobsa is a language characterized by its non-concatenative morphology and root system, as well as some agglutinative and fusional features. Roots can appear in an unmodified or a modified form. Nouns are inflected for number and case, and verbs for aspect, voice, and mood as well as for subject agreement in person and number.
Nouns
Nouns decline for six cases, as well as two numbers. The cases of Chakobsa are nominative, accusative, genitive, locative, allative, and ablative. The numbers are singular and plural. The different noun declensions are determined by whether the final sound of the root is a consonant, a vowel, or a glide.
Verbs
Verbs conjugate for aspect, voice, and mood and agree with their subjects in person and number. There are two aspects: imperfect and perfect; three voices: standard, causative and passive; and three moods: indicative, infinitive, and imperative. There are six infinitive forms, one for each aspect-voice combination.
