* There is no gender distinction in the third person pronouns, though there is a distinction between animate (“he/she”) and inanimate (“it”). | |||
* There is a first person dual inclusive pronoun (“you and I”), but it is optional; there is not a plural inclusive, and all other first person non-singular roles are assumed by the first person plural, whether inclusive or exclusive. | |||
* As with the third person singular, there is an animacy distinction in the third person plural. |
