.

.

The neighbours came to help us.

o .

She spoke with the neighbour about the weather.

.

.

Nobody knew the new neighbour.

Straightforward, and the affixes do the rest: o a female neighbour, neighbouring, o the state of being neighbours, o the neighbourhood as a place. Note that the adjective is genuinely useful in Esperanto where English would reach for a different word entirely - is the country next door, the room next door. The -- in the middle is a diphthong, nigh-BAH-ro, so it is one syllable and not two.
