In the article I read: "Adjectives in Maa serve only to describe the noun, and change tenses depending on the noun that they are describing." I have never heard about adjectives changing tense according to the noun the describe. Could it be meant that they change gender according to the noun's gender?Redav (talk) 22:35, 14 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Is there any kind of official orthography for Maasai? Does it indicate tone and +/-ATR? I’ve only found one source suggesting an orthography but it was behind a pretty steep paywall, and I don’t know if it’s widely accepted. שונרא (talk) 12:40, 25 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
