Adjectives have the form CVCV. The second vowel can be a diphthong.

Antonyms

Many adjectives come in opposite pairs. For example;-

beautiful hau@e ugly @aiho
big juga small tisa
hot fema cold pona
fast saco slow gade


Each of these pairs have a specific relationship to each other. Each consonant is reflected about "l" and each vowel is reflected about "a".


Alphabetical orders are ;-

@, m, y, j, f, b, g, d, l, c, s, k, p, t, w, n, h

and ..... au, o, oi, i, ia, a, ua, u, eu, e, ai

Not all adjectives come in such pairs. For example for duke meaning "ill", there is no corresponding adjective cibo for "healthy".

Adjective made into verbs

Adjectives can be made into verbs by infixes.

big juga to expand jusga to increase julga
hot fema to heat up fesma to become hot felma
fast saco to accelerate sasco to accelerate salco


m y j f b g d l c s k p t w n h
zm zy zb zg zd zl sk sp st zw zn
lm ly lj lf lb lg ld lc ls lk lp lt lw ln lh
ny nj nf mb ng nd nl nc ns nk mp nt mw nh
ngw nkw

By the way, further alphabetical orders are;- 

 /b, by, bl, bw/   &   /m...h, zm...zn, lm...lh, ny...ng, ngw, nd...nk, nkw, mp...nh/
