Different words may be derived just by putting a single root in different classes. So for example we have ''kaKalurilut'' (a Kalurilut person), ''saKalurilut'' (the Kalurilut language), ''iKalurilut'' (the Kalurilut land), or ''ruKalurilut'' (Kalurilut-ness, or their ethnic identity). Sometimes they're less obvious synchronically, e.g. ''tutavik'' (wolf) and ''rutavik'' (moon). | Different words may be derived just by putting a single root in different classes.

===Pronouns=== | |||
Pronouns, in saKalurilut, distinguish three different roles (nominative, accusative, and "indirect") with a total of five different forms (there being accusative and dative verbal clitics). There is a singular/plural contrast with also a distinction between exclusive and inclusive 1PL. Note that in the third person "X" pronoun, the ''～'' part refers to the noun class prefix to be added, e.g. ''kalliiq'' (he/she - class 1), ''sulliiq'' (they - class 2); ''tulliiq'' (he/she/it - class 3), ''naqqiiq'' (they - class 4) and so on. The same graphical representation is used in the last column, which contains possessive adjectives (e.g. ''kapungit'' (my - class 1); ''supungit'' (my - class 2)...). | |||
The clitics for the 3rd X pronoun are the same as the corresponding noun class ones; they have no distinct indirect prefixes. | |||
