Editing Yuchi language (section)

====Number====
The concept of [[plural]]ity in Yuchi is not as strongly developed as in English,{{sfn|Wagner|1938|p=310}} leading one early [[Linguistic description|descriptivist]] to claim that Yuchi has "no true plural."{{sfn|Speck|1909|p=15}} Animate nouns can, however, be pluralized by the addition of suffixes that correspond closely to their singular counterparts. Although tribal affiliation and [[Grammatical gender|gender]] distinctions carry over into the plural, kinship does not.{{sfn|Wagner|1938|p= 322}}
*-he'no{{in5|6}}Yuchi tribe members (male speech)
*-o'no{{in5|8}}Yuchi tribe members (female speech)
*-we'no{{in5}}all other animate beings

Inanimate nouns can be made plural by the suffix ''-ha'', which replaces the singular inanimate suffixes listed above.{{sfn|Wagner|1938|p=323}}

In addition to suffixing, several words related to kinship are pluralized via [[reduplication]] of the stem.{{sfn|Wagner|1938|p= 323}}
