Welsh [[morphology (linguistics)|morphology]] has much in common with that of the other modern [[Insular Celtic languages]], such as the use of initial [[consonant mutation]]s and of so-called "[[inflected preposition|conjugated prepositions]]" ([[preposition]]s that fuse with the [[personal pronoun]]s that are their [[object (grammar)|object]]). Welsh nouns belong to one of two [[grammatical gender]]s, masculine and feminine, but they are not inflected for [[grammatical case|case]]. Welsh has a variety of different endings and other methods to indicate the plural, and two endings to indicate the [[grammatical number|singular]] (technically the [[singulative number|singulative]]) of some nouns. In spoken Welsh, verbal features are indicated primarily by the use of [[auxiliary verb]]s rather than by the [[grammatical conjugation|inflection of the main verb]]. In literary Welsh, on the other hand, inflection of the main verb is usual.
