A-stem
The biggest adjective class. Strong forms do not have an infix, weak forms are identical to the standard declensions of masculine an-stem, neuter an-stem and feminine Εn-stem nouns.
Strong declension
Strong non-singual regular cases are formed by adding a non-singular cluster to a vowel -π°ΜπΉ-.

Strong singular masculine and neuter adjectives distinguish between animacy and inanimacy in some cases.

Dual non-genitive oblique cases use a dual marker -π°.
Distinction between animates and inanimates is also present in non-oblique (nominative, vocative and accusative) duals. Non-oblique duals forms are identical for all cases in adjectives similarly to how they are in nouns.

Paucal non-genitive oblique cases use a paucal marker -πΉ.
Paucals do not distinguish between animate and inanimate forms.

Plurals use devoiced forms without a marker.
Plurals, like paucals, do not distinguish between animate and inanimate forms

Unlike strong forms, singular weak forms do not distinguish between inanimates and animates.

Unlike strong forms, dual weak forms also do not distinguish between inanimates and animates. They are also unaffected by the weak noun non-standard forms.
