Comment: The forms listed below are given in a phonemic transcription using the system of transcription adopted by Cammenga (2002). Chapter two of Cammenga (2002) contains extensive discussion of phonological rules which account for the surface realisation of the forms listed below. In addition, note that possessive pronouns agree with the possessed noun in noun class and the possessor in number and person (Cammenga 2002:329-32). The forms listed below are those used with class one possessed nouns. See Cammenga (2002:329-31) for a complete statement of the forms for possessed nouns of all classes.
