Due to the polypersonal agreement present on verbs, bare personal pronouns are rarely used in Hantza. When they are used they are referred to as "emphatic pronouns".

When they are used they are referred to as "emphatic pronouns". Emphatic pronouns are necessarily of definite reference. They are formed by affixing the possession prefixes to the morpheme ''-al'' for first and second person and ''-kò'' for all other. This is analogous to the English "myself" et cetera. | ||
