Grammar Introduction
In kinyarwanda, nouns are grouped into 10 families of relationships called classes (inteko). Each one of these classes has a particular agreement with other words in a meaningful sentence. When nouns are used as subjects of verbs, they should agree with them according to their respective class prefix. When adjectives such as possessive, descriptive, demonstrative are used with nouns, they should agree with them as well. In this unit the emphasis will be on the agreement with possessives. However, the study of the classes of noun will be done systematically so that learners may be able to identfy them and make use of them in sentences appropriately.
