It's currently a mostly analytic language, with a little bit of inflection. Nouns are not inflected for number or case. Verbs are not inflected for tense, aspect or mood.

Speech is mostly about saying the words the words you want in the right order.

The design is built around the idea of getting as much power out of verbs as possible.
There are five classes of word:
# structure word,
# verb,
# noun,
# question-option, and
# connective.

Structure words tie the other words together and mark parts of speech.
Verbs are used to assert the presence of actions, and also to refer to them hypothetically.
The functions of adjectives and adverbs are performed by verbs.
Every verb, noun, question-option and connective word is a content word. A content word of any type can be converted to any other type by inflection.

The core vocabulary, and some of the grammar rules, come from [https://tokipona.org Toki Pona], making Kot Wawa a [https://conlang.fandom.com/wiki/Tokiponido tokiponido]. The name, "Kót Wàwa", is derived from the words "toki wawa", to mean "strong speech".
