Ancient Hivatish had no true 3rd person pronouns. Demonstrstives were used instead.


*siqu, siqaa, situt = this
*siqu, siqaa, situt = this
*qu, qaa, tut = that
*qu, qaa, tut = that
*ju, jaa, jut = which (relative pronoun)
*kiq? kia? kit? = who? what?

allows sanskrit style compounds
===Functions of the cases===
Qivattutannguaq has 6 or 7 cases depending on register.
*The nominative is used for subjects and predicate objects. In Prisinitutannguaq, it is also used for direct objects, and the -q and -n endings are dropped.
*Dative objects and benefactives use the dative. It is also used for "have", as in Latin.
*The genitive is used for attributive possession and "belongs to" possession. Genitives come before nouns.
*The direct object of an affirmative verb takes the accusative, and the direct object of a negated verb takes the ablative:
**''Suwaa walkum iwiti.'' = The dog saw a wolf.
**''Suwaa walkiat nēm iwiti.'' = The dog did not see a wolf.
*Static locations take the locative. A preposition such as ''in'' or ''at'' can be used but is not necessary.
*Destinations for prepositions indicating destination like ''in'' 'into', ''at'' 'at' or ''ipi'' 'onto' take the accusative.
*"from a location" generally just takes the ablative, but some contexts require the preposition ''ut''. (such as from a place that is city-sized or larger: ''ut vukaat'' 'from the city', but ''taamut'' 'from the house')
*For 'with' (instrumental) ''su'' + ablative is used. 'With' (comitative) requires the preposition ''san'' + ablative.
*Agents of passive verbs use the ablative.
