Flexion. The language is devoid af articles, but flexion
generally supplies this want. The indefinite article, indicating a
part or some of a whole or of a kind, is rendered by the widely
used Modalis (appos. mik), especially for the object of halftransitive
verbs, or more generally explaining the action, f. e. ujarkamik
tig-usivoq (halftr.) he took a stone; ujarkamik milorpd he pelted him
with a stone; ujarak (obj. case) tiguvd (trans.) he took the stone.
If more expressly one individual out of several or many is meant,
and especially as subject of a sentence, the article „a" requires the
addition of ila (part) wsf., f. e. ivssaq tuluit (pi. of tuluk
Englishman) Hat (one of the)’ nunaUpoq the other day an Englishman
landed; whereas tuluk nunalipoq means: the E. (of whom was
spoken) landed.
