	While ~~nouns~~ obey the ergative-absolutive alignment ~~rules~~, person marking on ~~the~~ verbs follows nominative-accusative alignment rules. The agent/subject person is realized as a prefix, while the object is realized as a suffix. Many of the person markers for prefixes are wholly dissimilar to their ~~prefix~~ counterparts, though most exhibit a shared thematic consonant. The following table shows the paradigm of the positive copula, '''R-Y-D''', with marking made for the object ~~identical to~~ the agent/subject.		While noun marking and syntax obey the rules of ergative-absolutive alignment, person marking on verbs follows nominative-accusative alignment rules.

The following table shows the paradigm of the positive copula, '''R-Y-D''', with marking made for the object as well as the agent/subject.
