If used as a core argument, the singular forms | If used as a core argument, the singular forms and the plural short forms may appear just before the clause-final copula ''itá'',e.g. ''Nitori kā itá!'' (You are a fool); sometimes the pronoun is cliticized to the main verb, e.g. ''Nitoriká 'itá!'', in which case a final long vowel is shortened and is appended with the glottal stop. They may also be used to emphasize a noun, in which case the pronoun precedes the noun linked with the connective ''si='', as in ''tā si=naho'' (She/Her, the mother). | ||
