Out of curiosity, how does the average themsaran child remember all the posessive suffixes? Some of them like the fourth person male/v/female seem like they'd probably collapse into one category. probably would I've noticed that in languages that have them they tend to be highly regular (exculding inuktitut), like, for example, Navajo. The posessive prefixes in navajo are the same at the core as the subject prefixes in the verbs, yet allthough the verb prefixes require a whole textbook to describe their behavior noun prefixes can be gone over in a mere two paragraphs. I'd assume that all nouns have to have their posessor indicated or something. Greatbuddha (talk) 03:05, 16 November 2013 (CET)
