''as'' | ''as'' is bracketed to show that it is rarely used even in appropriate context. For example, though it would be grammatically correct to refer to a group of women or girls as ''as'', a native speaker is realistically more likely to still refer them to as ''os'' out of convention. | ||
''vos'' holds the same purpose as French ''vous'', in which it simultaneously acts as a plural and a formal second-person pronoun. | ''vos'' holds the same purpose as French ''vous'', in which it simultaneously acts as a plural and a formal second-person pronoun. | ||

''Luare'' and ''luares'' are once again bracketed to show that they are rarely used in even correct context. | |||
The possessives can also be used as dative forms when placed after the noun, e.g. ''don la '''luere''' mesa'' "give '''their''' table" vs ''don la mesa '''luere''''' "give the table '''to them'''" | |||
