=== Syntax ===

Like most [[Insular Celtic languages]], Manx is a [[verb–subject–object|VSO]] language.<ref>Broderick 1993, 276</ref> However, most finite verbs are formed periphrastically, using an auxiliary verb in conjunction with the verbal noun. In this case, only the auxiliary verb precedes the subject, while the verbal noun comes after the subject. The auxiliary verb may be a [[modal verb]] rather than a form of {{lang|gv|bee}} ("be") or {{lang|gv|jannoo}} ("do"). Particles like the negative {{lang|gv|cha}} ("not") precede the inflected verb. Examples:

{{interlinear|lang=gv|indent=3|italics1=no|italics2=yes|glossing3=yes
| {main verb} {} subject {} {direct object} {}|style1= font-variant:small-caps;
| Hug yn saggyrt e laue urree.
| put-PRET the priest his hand {on her}
| "The priest put his hand on her."<ref>Broderick 1984–86, 1:181</ref>}}

{{interlinear|lang=gv|indent=3|italics1=no|italics2=yes|glossing3=yes
| {aux. verb} {} subject {main verb} {} {direct object}|style1= font-variant:small-caps;
| Va ny eayin gee yn conney.
| were the lambs eat-V.N. the gorse
| "The lambs used to eat the gorse."<ref>Broderick 1984–86, 1:179</ref>}}

{{interlinear|lang=gv|indent=3|italics1=no|italics2=yes|glossing3=yes
| {} {modal verb} subject {main verb} {direct object}|style1= font-variant:small-caps;
| Cha jarg shiu fakin {red erbee.}
| not can you-PL see-V.N. anything
| "You can't see anything."<ref>Broderick 1993, 274</ref>}}

When the auxiliary verb is a form of {{lang|gv|jannoo}} ("do"), the direct object precedes the verbal noun and is connected to it with the particle {{lang|gv|y}}:

{{interlinear|lang=gv|indent=3|italics1=no|italics2=yes|glossing3=yes
| {aux. verb} subject {direct object} {} {main verb}|style1= font-variant:small-caps;
| Ren ad {my choraa} y chlashtyn.
| did they {my voice} PTCL hear-V.N.
| "They heard my voice."<ref name="Thoms105"/>}}

As in Irish (cf. [[Irish syntax#The forms meaning "to be"]]), there are two ways of expressing "to be" in Manx: with the substantive verb {{lang|gv|bee}}, and with the copula. The substantive verb is used when the [[predicate (grammar)|predicate]] is an adjective, adverb, or [[prepositional phrase]].<ref>Broderick 1993, 276–77</ref> Examples:

{{interlinear|lang=gv|indent=3
| t' eh agglagh
| is it awful/frightening
| "It is awful/frightening."}}

{{interlinear|lang=gv|indent=3
| t' eh {dy mie}
| is he well
| "He is well"}}

{{interlinear|lang=gv|indent=3
| t' eh ayns y thie-oast
| is he in the house-ale
| "He is in the ale-house ([[pub]])."}}

Where the predicate is a noun, it must be converted to a prepositional phrase headed by the preposition {{lang|gv|in}} ("in") + possessive pronoun (agreeing with the subject) in order for the substantive verb to be grammatical:

{{interlinear|lang=gv|indent=3
| t' eh ny wooinney mie
| is he in-his man good
| "He is a good man" (lit. "He is in his good man")<ref>Broderick 1993, 277</ref>}}

Otherwise, the copula is used when the predicate is a noun. The copula itself takes the form {{lang|gv|is}} or {{lang|gv|she}} in the present tense, but it is often omitted in affirmative statements:

{{interlinear|lang=gv|indent=3
| She Manninagh mish
| COP Manxman me
| "I am a Manxman."<ref>Broderick 1993, 278</ref>}}

{{interlinear|lang=gv|indent=3
| Shoh 'n dooinney
| this the man
| "This is the man."<ref name=Thoms105>Thomson 1992, 105</ref>}}

In questions and negative sentences, the present tense of the copula is {{lang|gv|nee}}:

{{interlinear|lang=gv|indent=3
| Cha nee mish eh
| not COP me him
| "I am not him."<ref name=Thoms105 />}}

{{interlinear|lang=gv|indent=3
| Nee shoh 'n lioar?
| COP this the book
| "Is this the book?"<ref name=Thoms105 />}}

=== Morphology ===
==== Initial consonant mutations ====
Like all modern Celtic languages, Manx shows [[consonant mutation#Celtic languages|initial consonant mutation]]s, which are processes by which the initial consonant of a word is altered according to its [[morphology (linguistics)|morphological]] and/or [[syntax|syntactic]] environment.<ref>Broderick 1984–86, 1:7–21; 1993, 236–39; Thomson 1992, 132–35</ref> Manx has two mutations: '''[[lenition]]''' and '''[[eclipsis]]''', found on nouns and verbs in a variety of environments; adjectives can undergo lenition but not eclipsis. In the late spoken language of the 20th century the system was breaking down, with speakers frequently failing to use mutation in environments where it was called for, and occasionally using it in environments where it was not called for.

<references group="*" />
In the corpus of the late spoken language, there is also one example of the eclipsis (nasalisation) of {{IPA|/ɡ/}}: the sentence {{lang|gv|Ta mee er '''ng'''eddyn yn eayn}} ("I have found the lamb"), where {{Angle bracket|ng}} is pronounced {{IPA|/n/}}. However, probably this was a mis-transcription; the verbal noun in this case is not {{lang|gv|geddyn}} "get, fetch", but rather {{lang|gv|feddyn}} "find".<ref>(Broderick 1984–86 2:190, 3:66).</ref>

==== Nouns ====
Manx nouns display gender, number and sometimes case, for instance, for feminine {{lang|gv|cass}} "foot".

==== Verbs ====
Manx verbs generally form their [[finite verb|finite]] forms by means of [[periphrasis]]: inflected forms of the [[auxiliary verb]]s {{lang|gv|ve}} "to be" or {{lang|gv|jannoo}} "to do" are combined with the [[verbal noun]] of the main verb. Only the [[future tense|future]], [[conditional tense|conditional]], [[preterite]], and [[imperative mood|imperative]] can be formed directly by inflecting the main verb, but even in these tenses, the periphrastic formation is more common in Late Spoken Manx.<ref>Broderick 1984–86, 75–82; 1993, 250, 271; Thomson 1992, 122</ref>

2.'''[[template:Ref label|^]]''' First person plural, making the use of a following subject pronoun redundant

3.'''[[template:Ref label|^]]''' Used with all other persons, meaning an accompanying subject must be stated, e.g. {{lang|gv|tilgee eh}} "he will throw", {{lang|gv|tilgee ad}} "they will throw"

4.'''[[template:Ref label|^]]''' Singular subject.

5.'''[[template:Ref label|^]]''' Plural subject.

There are a few peculiarities when a verb begins with a vowel, i.e. the addition of {{lang|gv|d'}} in the preterite and {{lang|gv|n'}} in the future and conditional dependent. Below is the conjugation of {{lang|gv|aase}} "to grow".

There is a small number of irregular verbs, the most irregular of all being {{lang|gv|ve}} "be".

==== Prepositions ====
Like the other [[Insular Celtic languages]], Manx has [[inflected preposition]]s, contractions of a [[preposition]] with a [[pronoun|pronominal]] direct object, as the following common prepositions show. Note the sometimes identical form of the uninflected preposition and its third person singular masculine inflected form.
