Comment: The possessive forms listed below index alienable possession (Dixon 2004:77). The full set of inalienable possessive pronouns is described by Dixon (2004:77). In addition, the A, S, and O 3rd person plural forms are only used to refer to animate antecedents (Dixon 2004:77). The form used to refer to inanimates is, like the 3rd person singular forms, null (∅) (Dixon 2004:77).
