=====Double object affixes=====
Ditransitive constructions employing double object affixes (which occur in the order {{sc|verb-IO-DO}}) are restricted to certain combinations of pronominal objects (the constraint is that the recipient outrank the theme in animacy; hence ''mī́dynŧū!'' 'give me them!' is licensed but not ''*mīsŧechýn!'' 'give me to them!'). Participles and supines (objects patterning as in finite verbs) may receive a similar "double possessive" suffix.
