Comment: The forms listed below are given in the system of transcription adopted by Highfield (1979). In addition, singular possessive pronouns in this language agree with the possessum in gender and number while plural possessives agree in number only (Highfield 1979:62-3). The possessive forms listed below are those used with a singular masculine possessum, see Highfield (1979:62-3) for complete description of the possessive forms. Many possessive forms also have a morphophonemic alternant, see again Highfield (1979:62-3) for discussion.
