Notes: 

This word and the preceding are identical in form except for the accent. See their full paradigm in the Appendix. This is one situation in which knowing accents is helpful. See the Appendix for others.

tiV is either not accented or it is accented on its last syllable ("ultima"). It is the indefinite pronoun.

tivV is always accented on its first syllable. It is the interrogative pronoun.

Both are 3-3 adjectives, using the same third declension pattern for the masculine and feminine (tivV), and the third declension for the neuter (tiV).
