Comment: The possessive forms listed below appear as proclitics attached to possessed animate nouns (MacDonald 2013:7). Inanimate possessed nouns are typically not marked (MacDonald 2013:7). Similarly, the object forms listed appear as proclitics attached to transitive verbs (MacDonald 2013:7). In addition, third person singular objects and possessors are typically unmarked in the language (MacDonald 2013:7). Hence, the numeral '0' has been entered in the relevant cells below.
