    Lepontic grammar had several types of noun declensions including o-stems, a:-stems, i-stems, and n-stems. These declined in the nominative, accusative, genitive, and dative cases. Verbs were simple with only two identified forms, karite and tetu, both with preterite third person singular forms indicating 'placed, erected, put up' and 'gave or placed' respectively.
