Kjaxono is a decisively agglutinative language, with plentiful fusional and polysynthetic characteristics. Kjaxono, along with other languages of the [...] language family comprise the only example of languages with a morphosyntactic alignment of ''transitive-intransitive'' - with the agent of an intransitive verb being inflected for an intransitive case. This feature is one of the most notorious features of Kjaxono. Otherwise, Kjaxono nouns rather simply decline for '''2 cases''' - ''transitive'' and ''intransitive,'' as previously stated - and '''2 numbers''' - ''singular'' and ''plural.'' Kjaxono has three grammatical genders, of which are called ''types'' by Kjaxono linguists. These genders are usually referred to as ''Kjai'', ''Umare'', and ''Rubin.''

Verbs are the most inflecting part of speech in Kjaxono - see '''§6 Verbal System'''.

Verbs are ~~by far~~ the most complex part of speech in Kjaxono. It is by far the most difficult aspect of Kjaxono for new speakers of the language to learn, due its system-wide irregularity and general difficulty. Oftentimes, conjugation can encode all of the information needed to parse a sentence. The verbal system of Kjaxono consists of 5 different conjugations, which are called ''systems'' by most linguists. Kjaxono verbs conjugate for '''4 tenses''' - ''past, hodiernal, present, and future -'' '''7 aspects''' - ''perfective, momentane, prospective, imperfective, progressive, stative, and gnomic'' - '''4 moods''' - ''indicative, conditional, potential, and hypothetical'' - '''3 types of evidence''' - ''direct, reportative, and assumptive'' - and '''3 voices''' - active, middle, and passive. A feature not present in any other language aside from other languages within the [...] language family is the optional marking of definiteness and or indefiniteness (in regards to person, see the main Kjaxono verb article) within Kjaxono systems. Hard to define, they can mark for extremely specific scenarios with little equivelant in any other language. All together, Kjaxono verbs have by far the most inflection and nuance of any part of speech in Kjaxono.
