Lombard/Adjectives

__TOC__ Similarly to what happens for nouns, adjectives also have two genders (masculine and feminine) and two numbers (singular and plural). As regards the formation of the plural and the feminine, see what has already been said for nouns Types of adjectives Qualifying Qualifying adjectives express qualities. For these types of adjective, in addition to the basic form of the adjective (positive degree), there is a superlative degree, to express the quality in an extreme form, and a comparative degree to express a comparison.

Note: Possessive adjectives can be reinforced with the relative specification complements (de + pronom personal soget), for example mè de mi, sò de lù, and so on. Esamples: La soa ca' de lù (his house – of him) The reinforcement of possessive adjectives (or the use of only complements instead of adjectives) is mandatory in case of ambiguity in the 3rd person singular / plural. They are usually placed before the noun and after the article; attention: the article is not needed only for kinship ties: "Mè pader" (and not “El mè pader”) – in English: my father → Referenzes Claudio Beretta, A lezione di grammatica milanese, Circolo Filologico Milanese, pag.63 Nozioni di Grammatica del Dialetto Bergamasco Numerals The table below indicates the masculine of adjectives: as for gender, cardinals are invariable except vun "m" → vuna/voeuna "f"; du "m" → do "f"; trè "m" → trii "f", the ordinals follow the same rules for the formation of the feminine of nouns and adjectives. ►►Cardinal adjectives "m"Ordinal adjectives "m"Dialects1vun (1)voeun (2)prim(1) (2) 2dusecond3triiterz4quaterquart5cinchcincuquint6sessest7setsetim8vototav9noeuvnono10desdecim11vundesunidicesim / quell di vundes12dodesdodicesim / quell di dodes13tredestredicesim / quell di tredes14quatordesquatordicesim / quell di quatordes15quindesquindicesim / quell di quindes16sedessedicesim / quell di sedes17derset quell di derset18desdotquell di desdot19desnoeuvquell di desonoeuv20vintvintesim / quell di vint21vintunvintunesim / quell di vintun22vintiduuvintiduesim / quell di vintiduu23-29 ... ...30trentatrentesim / quell di trenta31trentuntrentunesim / quell di trentun32trenta-dutrentaduesim / quell di trenta-du33-39 ... ...40quarantaquaranta / quell di quranta41quarantunquarantunesim / quell di quarantun42quaranta-duquarantaduesim / quell di quaranta-du43-49 ... ...50cinquantacinquantesim / quell di cinquanta51-59 ... ...60sessantasessantesim / quell di sessanta61-69 ... ...70setantasetantesim / quell di setanta71-79 ... ...80votantavotantesim / quell di votanta81-89 ... ...90novantanovantesim / quell di novanta91-99 ... ...100centcentesim/ quell di centvun101centvuncentesim prim / quell di centvun102cent-ducentesim second / quell di centdu103-109 ... ...110cent-descentdecim / quell di centdes111cent-vundescentvundicesim / quell di centvundes112-199 ... ...200du-sentdusentesim / quell di dusent201-299 ... ...300tre-senttresentesim / quell di du-sent301-399 ... ...400quater-centquatercentesim / quell di quater-cent401-499 ... ...500cinch-centcinchcentesim / quell di cinch-cent501-599 ... ...600ses-cent]ses'centesim / quell di ses-cent601-599 ... ...700set-centsetcentesim / quell di set-cent701-799 ... ...800vot-centvotcentesim / quell di vot-cent801-899 ... ...900noeuv-centnoeuvcentesim / quell di noeuv-cent901-999 ... ...1000milamilesim / quell di mila1001mila e vunmilesim prim / quell di mila e vun1002-1099 ... ...1100mila e centmilacentesim / quell di mila e cent2000do-milabimilesim / quell di domila3000tre-milaquell di tre-mila3001-9999 ... ...10000des-milaquell di des-mila10000-99999 ... ...100000cent-milaquell di cent-mila100001-999999 ... ...1000000un milionmilionesim / quell del milion1000001-9999999 ... ...1000000000un miliardmiliardesim / quell del miliard → Referenzes Circolo Filologico Milanese (2018).
