=== Enclitic === An enclitic appears after its host.<ref name="crystal" /> *[[Latin]]: [[SPQR|Senatus ''Populus'''''que''' Romanus]] *:"Senate ''people''-'''and''' Roman" = "The Senate and people of Rome" *[[Spanish language|Spanish]]: ''tener'''''lo''' *:"to have '''it'''" *[[Ancient Greek]]: ''ánthrōpoí'' ('''-te''') ''theoí'' '''-te''' *:"''people'' ('''and''') ''gods'' '''and'''" = "(both) men and gods" *[[Sanskrit]]: ''naro gajaś'''-ca''''' नरो गजश्च i.e. "naraḥ gajaḥ ca" नरस् गजस् -च with [[sandhi]] *:"''the man the elephant and''" = "the man and the elephant" *Sanskrit: [[Namaste|Namas'''te''']] < ''namaḥ'' + ''te'', ([[Devanagari]]: नमः + -ते = नमस्ते), with sandhi change ''namaḥ'' > ''namas''. *: "''bowing to you''" *[[Czech language|Czech]]: ''Nevím, chtělo'''-li by se mi si to tam však''' také vyzkoušet''. *:"'''However''' ('''''však'''''), I do not know (''nevím''), '''if''' ('''''-li''''') '''it''' '''would''' ('''''by''''') want (''chtělo '''se''''') to try (''vyzkoušet '''si''''') '''it''' ('''''to''''') '''to me''' ('''''mi''''') '''there''' ('''''tam''''') as well (''také'')." (= However, I'm not sure if I would like to try it there as well.) *[[Tamil language|Tamil]]: ''idu eṉ pū'' = இது என் பூ (This is my flower). With enclitic '''-vē''', which indicates certainty, this sentence becomes *:idu eṉ pū'''vē''' = இது என் பூவே (This is ''certainly'' my flower) *[[Telugu language|Telugu]]: ''idi nā puvvu'' = ఇది నా పువ్వు (This is my flower). With enclitic '''-ē''', which indicates certainty, this sentence becomes *:Idi nā puvv'''ē''' = ఇది నా పువ్వే (This is ''certainly'' my flower) *[[Estonian language|Estonian]]: ''Rahaga'''gi''' vaene'' means "Poor even having money". Enclitic '''-gi''' with the [[comitative]] case turns "with/having something" into "even with/having something". Without the enclitic, the saying would be "rahaga vaene", which would mean that the [[Predicate (grammar)|predicate]] is "poor, but has money" (compared to "poor even having money", having money won't make a difference if the predicate is poor or not).
