The animacy hierarchy, from most to least animated, is as follows: 1 > 2 > 3; S > PA > P; INCL > EXCL. This can be seen, from top to bottom, in the following table: | |||
{| class="bluetable lightbluebg collapsible collapsed" | {| class="bluetable lightbluebg collapsible collapsed" | ||

This is marked as follows: | |||
Direct -Ø- | |||
Inverse -n- | {| class="bluetable lightbluebg" | ||
Same -C- Repeats the first consonant of the marker in Slot 1; if said slot is "empty" (unmarked), | |- | ||

| Direct || colspan=2| -Ø- || The agent role of a transitive construction is taken by an argument in a higher hierarchical level than that of the argument taking on the patient role. | |||

| Inverse || colspan=2| -n- || The agent role of a transitive construction is taken by an argument in a lower hierarchical level than that of the argument taking on the patient role. | |||

This is not strictly a traditional direct-inverse marker, but rather the functional equivalent which marks verbs for reflexivity using the same slot, but nevertheless also owing to the same hierarchical logic, thus being analized as part of the same system. | This is not strictly a traditional direct-inverse marker, but rather the functional equivalent which marks verbs for reflexivity using the same slot, but nevertheless also owing to the same hierarchical logic, thus being analized as part of the same system. | ||
