Interesting to mark 'water' (the noun) with genitive and 'deep' (the adjective) with nominative. How come? Are adjectives considered nouns in Kash? Or should it really be the other way around, i.e. NOM.water deep.GEN? Or what *is* the relationship between nouns and adjectives in Kash? This is both very intriguing and very confusing. Daniel
