Comment: The third person pronouns distinguish animacy, spatial deixis, and visibility/invisibility (Payne 2013:88-9). The animate, proximate, visible third person forms are listed below. The element ‘úja’ appears immediately following A pronouns (Payne 2012:68). Since this element is classified as a postposition it is not included in the forms listed below. Possession is marked differently for inalienable and alienable nouns (Payne 2013:74 ff). The forms used for inalienable possession are listed below. Note, the forms of the prefixal possessive pronouns listed below vary significantly in an allomorphic fashion as discussed by Payne (2013:74-5).
