=== Nouns === Nouns are divided into two classes: class N, which is affixed with set marker /-n/, and class non-N, which does not have this affix. Class non-N is the larger of the two, containing almost all nouns in Tewa, which are, for the most part, mono- or di-syllabic. Class N nouns are mostly designations for age-sex differentiation, kinship terms, and forms which translate as pronouns. ==== Noun affixes ==== All known noun affixes are included in the chart below. {| class="wikitable" ! !Root !1 !2 !3 !4 !5 !6 !7 !8 !9 !10 !11 |- |ti | |ge |n |gí' |á |rí |bá |bo |raʔ |ân |kun |ho' |- | | | |n2 |ví |á2 | |waen |há' |á |á | |ví |- | | | | |waen | | | | | | | |há' |} /-n2/ is different from /-n/ because of the occurrence of /-n2/ with singular, dual, and plural situations involving the same root, which is never the case for /-n/.
