Abstract
A Complete sentence can consist of several components. Not all sentences have all the sentence components. However, some of these elements are essential. The Constituents of the sentence are subject. verb and object. It is not an exaggeration to mention that ‘Adai’ is the most important element that has been transformed and used without becoming obsolete. Because in traditional grammers, plurals are represented by adjectives. Overtime, adjectives were not limited to the words Sala, Uru, Tava, Nani, Koor, Kazhi and accepted the name Adai, when raising the noun it is given as an Adjective and when raising the verb it is given as a Adverb. Conventional grammers did not establish the category of adverb. Instead, they are presented as Vinaiyechangal and Idaisorkal. Thus, this paper aims to explain what is scattered as Vinaiyecham, Idaisol and Urisol together with the type of ‘Adai’.
