Syntax
Cukish follows a SOV (subject-object-verb) syntax. That way, with time, Cukish got rid of the nominative-accusative case, which left the original roots without suffix when accomplishing the function of subject or direct object, hence receiving the name of "pure case". The Cukish syntax is very regular regarding its word order, as sentences must be ordered in the right way to be properly understood. Aside from the SOV order, genitive must go before the complement they are refering to, and adjectives must go in the same way with their noun correlatives.
