==Inalienable genitive==
Metin disinguishes between two types of genitive.

The alienable

fïduáyo "my pen" (You can give a pen to someone, or lose it.)

And the inalienable

i'qfuuyoh "my arm" (You can't give away that. At least, not normally.)

The endings for the inalienable are
-oh "my"
-hu/uhu"your"
-eh "his, hers, its"

Compare these for the alienable endings you've already learned
-o "my"
-u/f "your"
-en "his/hers/its"

The inalienable endings are usually used for

-Family members:

simeh suałtxen "txen's father"

-Body parts

i'qpluyoh "my ear"

-Components

yayemeh funjiki: "the bottom of the cup"

-Locations

yadëyeh sy'umiił "inside the house".
