Grammar Rules Help?

I am so confused on the grammar rues in dovahzul, as far as i am concerned:

  • the word the is never used
  • when phrasing questions you chanhe the subject and the verb around so "do you slay dragons" becomes "slay you dragons"

Would anyone be able to tell me if i am on the right track and show me a link to where i could find all of the grammar rules?

If you're refering the grammar as in 'Sentence Structute', see here.

If not, the whole first lesson section is all grammar based.

http://thuum.org/learn/ And a little bit at http://www.memrise.com/course/245416/dovahzul-non-canon/ There will be more explanations in the upcoming revised canon memrise course, and I'm thinking about doing a paper on the grammar rules in the near future.

And for the record, going off of grammar, you would use "hi", not "hei".  

Hei: you all, ya'll (plural)

Hi: you (singular)

On the topic of grammar, shouldn't it be "y'all" Mirkrilaar?

Also, he used "hei" correctly, as he was adressing everyone who answered his question.
