 ===Pronouns===
 ====Personal====
-Personal pronouns distinguish three persons in the singular and plural. Unlike some other languages, Bźatga does not distinguish gender in the third person singular, so ''e'' means "he, she, it". Both singular and plural have Nominative-Accusative and Oblique forms.

-The NA pronouns are used as subject and direct object of the verb. As subject, they are really suffixes which attach to the verb directly. The 3rd person ''e'' is not added to verbs, which generally end in a vowel, so for example, ''carde'' implicitly means 'he/she/it loves' unless another subject is stated. As direct object, the pronouns precede the verb directly, e.g. ''e cardemi'' "I love him", ''Małgǫ tu veŭse'' "Maigǫ saw you".

-NA pronouns are also used as possessive adjectives, following the noun they modify, e.g. ''aģi mi'' "my father", ''teje êve'' "their house".
+The Oblique forms are used following prepositions, e.g. ''cate ju'' "with him/her/it", ''a zna'' "from us".
