Didn't Annis say it was detached when in front of the noun?

I hope not.  Adpositions have this behavior, but not the attributive -a- marker.

irayo.
you are "skxawng"

Mako

Yeah, you can take the adjective Muiä and add an -n to the end of it (normally it would be -an, but because of the ä already there, you drop that and keep the -n) to make it masculine. Please double check this, but it should be right.

Muiän

irayo ma tsmúkan.Eywa ngahu
you are "skxawng"

Mako

Ewya ngahu ma tsmúkan. To all I've helped: please be sure to click the applaud button beneath my name. Irayo!

Can anyone link to a source that explains the behavior of the -a- marker?

Mako

What was the point of that?

Pa'lis Maktoyu

there up, i don't understand how can we choose our Na'vi name :S because if you see en the movie and game the Na'vi put the name togheter jakesully or reneharper :S, but with my ethymological name signification i can't find the first word of it "friend", normally it's "friend of horses" but in Pandora they are not horses so it must be Pa'li

Do not quote me on this, but in any language, higher numbers are created by combining their own numbers, hence 3 could be 'awmune (1 and 2)...

Pa'lis Maktoyu

Irayo!!
