Śinax Netagin often uses motion verbs instead of prepositions. | |||
The CNtg oblique preposition ''my'' is analyzed as part of prepositions, resulting in many prepositions ending in ''-m''. Most true prepositions come from relational nouns or from words for locations in CNtg (reanalyzed as nouns). Though nouns, including relational nouns/prepositions, can take possessive affixes (like Hebrew nouns and prepositions), in everyday speech, motion verbs are used instead of personal markers. | The CNtg oblique preposition ''my'' is analyzed as part of prepositions, resulting in many prepositions ending in ''-m''.
