Comment: Two things that aren't shown in the paradigm are: (a) the fact that in addition to the free pronoun, which syncretises A, S and O, there is verb agreement on an AS vs O basis (b) the fact that there are two possessive constructions, one alienable/indirect built from Pron + PossBase + suffix, the other alienabl/indirect built from Pron +Possessum+ suffix. Only the first is shown in the paradigm, but an example illustrating the contrast is: Direct: ŋai tama-g /I father-my/ 'my father' Indirect: ŋai sa-g ab /I PCL-my house/ 'my house' Still need to add in the other possessive forms
