TODO: revamp tenses to get split-ergativity, add evidentiality


Unlike Qivattutannguaq, Pestonian is NOT pro-drop.
There is a 2x2 tense structure: {non-past, past} x {imperfective, perfective}.
Ergativity is used in perfect(ive) tenses. The verb agrees with the noun in the absolutive case, and the ergative subject is marked with the ablative-locative case: ''Sõmed teisedim.'' 'He will find me.'
As in Hebrew and Russian, some tenses are pro-drop but some tenses are not.
