Comment: "Inawatan has both free and bound possessive pronominal forms. The free forms express alienable possession, the possessive prefixes express inalienable possession." p29 The free, alienable, forms have been provided here. They express the gender of the possessor by taking suffix -so "masculine" or -wo "feminine".
