Adjectives
Adjectives immediately precede the word they modify.

Multiple adjectives stack, though the order of the adjectives does not matter

- tain-tuc-boc
- gray-old-rock
- an old gray rock
- Tuctainboc
- tuc-tain-boc
- old-gray-rock

Possessives
Possessives are formed by using a name or pronoun as an adjective, again word order does not matter.

- muc-tain-tuc-boc
- my-gray-old-rock
- my old gray rock
- Taintucmucboc
- tain-tuc-muc-boc
- gray-old-my-rock

Negation
Adjectives are negated by the use of the prefix "ta," which immediately precedes the adjective it negates.
- Tataintucmucboc
- ta-tain-tuc-muc-boc
- NEG.gray-old-my-rock
- my old non-gray rock
- Taintuctamucboc
- tain-tuc-ta-muc-boc

Comparison
The compartitive forms of adjectives are formed by adding the prefix "in" for positive comparisons, and "fen" for negative comparisons. Ancaron has no superlative forms for positive or negative comparisons. Like the negation prefix, these prefixes immediately precede the adjective they modify.
- Tainintucboc
- tain-in-tuc-boc
- gray-more-old-rock
- the older gray rock
- Tainfentucboc
- tain-fen-tuc-boc
- gray-less-old-rock
- the less old gray rock
Sentence forms of comparison are created using " padi " (with spaces) to link the two parts of the comparison together, and it is used for both "more than," "less than," and "as ___ as" comparisons.
- intucboc padi muc
- in-tuc-boc padi muc
- more-old-rock than me
- a rock older than me
- fentucon padi muc
- fen-tuc-on padi muc
- less-old-person than me
- a person younger than me
- tucon padi muc
- tuc-on padi muc
- old-person as me

Verbs
Ancaron verbs mark the subject as a suffix and the direct object as a prefix, forming a OVS word order.
- Bocpunmuc.
- boc-pun-muc
- rock-hold-I
- I hold a rock.
Verb markers are located before the verb but after the object, in the following order: adverb, negation, tense marker. Ancaron only has 3 verb tenses, past present and future, with present being assumed with the absence of a marker.
- Boctortacivsipunmuc.
- boc-tor-ta-civ.sipun-muc
- rock-quickly-NEG-FUT.throw-I
- I will not quickly throw the rock.
However, while the direct object precedes the verb and subject, the indirect object follows the verb and subject as a separate word.
- Boccivsipunmuc Mardon.
- boc-civ.sipun-muc Mardon
- rock-FUT.throw-I Mardon
- I will toss the rock to Mardon.
