The association between the grammatical persons and the demonstratives is strong, with words, statements and actions made by a person frequently being referred to using the appropriate demonstrative. For example, a commonly used phrase for "therefore" is ''texi {{color|MediumBlue|tie}}'' (literally 'because of this (by me)') when the reasoning is based on what the speaker just said, but when the reasoning is based on what their interlocutor just said, this phrase is ''texi {{color|MediumBlue|tia}}'' (literally 'because of that (by you)'). | |||
