+===Possession===
+There are a variety of strategies to mark possession, ownership, and affiliation in Classical Aeranir, depending on many different factors.  Alienable and inalienable possession are distinguished, as well the degree of control the possessor has over the possessee.
+Objects of inalienable possession are marked with the genitive of a personal or demonstrative pronoun.  These include body parts, kinship and familiarity terms, personal attributes, emotions, or thoughts.  These pronouns generally proceed the possessee, although that is not always the case, especially in poety.  Singular pronouns ''tī'', ''nī'', ''cī'', ''sī'', ''ūrī'', and ''ūlī'' may be contracted to ''ti'', ''ni'', ''ci'', ''si'', ''ūri'', ''ūli'' before words starting with a vowel, and ''t<nowiki>'</nowiki>'', ''n<nowiki>'</nowiki>'', ''c<nowiki>'</nowiki>'', ''c<nowiki>'</nowiki>'', ''s<nowiki>'</nowiki>'', ''ūr<nowiki>'</nowiki>'', ''ūl<nowiki>'</nowiki>'' before words starting with ''i''.
+Alienable possession, including essentially all other categories, is marked via possessive adjectives.
