=====Predicative=====

The predicative construction of a nominal has a usage most often analogous to an English [[w:copula|copula]], used in a predicative expression.
*''It is dog.'' - '''mées'''
*''Sara is a girl.'' - '''Sáralhinàa'''
*''The house was crushed.''- '''tlátasiquarasíy'''
=====Relative=====

*''That which is a dog''
*''Did you see she who is Jonna?'' or ''Did you see Jonna?''
*''The man who was angry kicked the tree.''
