====Demonstrative==== | |||
Minurese only has two demonstrative pronouns, which are taken from personal pronouns; these are singular ''ti'' and plural ''nī''. Proximity is not marked, though generally their use implies a distal proximity; hence their common translation as "that" and "those" respectively. | |||
They are placed prepositionally. | |||

====Reflexives==== | ====Reflexives==== | ||
Reflexive verbs are optional and formed with a prepositional copula, while the verb itself stops conjugating on object. For example, "he washes" is ''mysiti'', while "he washes himself" can be written as ''mysitimy'' (lit. "he washes him") or as ''i mysiti tī''. When conjugated on tense, the copula takes tense infix postpositionally, as in ''i nu mysiti tī'' "he washed himself." | Reflexive verbs are optional and formed with a prepositional copula, while the verb itself stops conjugating on object.
