In Ènnbe is ''-ar''
For example; ''snake'' is '''Jùr''' and ''the snake'' is '''jùrar'''.


It uses latin alphabet with '''[[ç]]''' , '''[[ñ]]''', '''[[ȥ]]''', '''[[ŗ]]''' and the breton '''[[c'h]]'''.
An example of the language;

The '''ȥ''' represents the spanish sound for "z", and '''ŗ''' the "r" of "are".
