Any phrase can be nominalised using a classificatory topic marker (see below). When marked for the locative (see also below), these can be used to connect possessum to possessor.
Any phrase can be nominalised using a classificatory topic marker (see below). When marked for the locative (see also below), these can be used to connect possessum to possessor. Verbs and converbs require a nominalising particle in the form of an unstressed determiner, either the generic {{ash|n}} or one of the deictic {{ash|e}} and {{ash|o}} (again see below) which attaches directly to the classifier if present.
