Notes
- All glossing abbreviations are standard except 'ANA' which refers to an anaphoric (non-deictic) pronoun or determiner.
- Morphemes marked as nominalizers can actually produce either nouns or adjectives depending on the syntactic context, and noun classes can govern both nouns and adjectives. The main purpose of noun classes is to organize anaphoric referents, which progress incrementally through the classes and which reset by a reversal of the direction of increment or after substantial separation.
- The verb argument morphemes (S, A, O) behave as if any morpheme incorporated into the verb itself are part of the lexical meaning of the verb they are modifying and do not occupy valency slots of the verb. For example, a verb with an agent and a direct and indirect object, with the agent and indirect object specified in the verb marking, will syntactically behave as a monovalent verb, where the sole argument will be the semantic direct object.
- The verb g'waa, glossed as "occur", is applied to a stative verb to give an active and causative derivative meaning.
- The pronominal morphemes <r> and <buŋ> (1s and 2s respectively) mark the verb as indicative when prepositional, and mark it as hortative when postpositional. Their counterparts <si> and <sïg> only occur postpositionally and mark the verb as indicative. Regardless of the morphemes, prepositional morphemes mark the direct object of a transitive or ergative verb while postpositional morphemes mark the subject of a transitive or ergative verb or the sole argument of an intransitive or ergative verb.
