Masculine and feminine forms of adjectives can be created by taking the lemma form and adding suffixes if it is necessary to do so (e.g. if the lemma form is feminine, and a masculine equivalent is needed). Singular adjectives always agree with the gender of the noun.

Plural forms are always created depending on the grammatical gender of the lemma, however, there is only one plural form of an adjective – the defined plural form is used for both masculine and feminine nouns.
