For animate possessa, the verb ''rununk-'' (to guide, to command) is used, but there is a noticeable avoidance of it for humans or other high agency nouns: | |||
# Rununkigalkan "My horse" (lit. I command a horse) | |||
# ?Rununkizāzakan (Intended: "My father") | |||
# ?Rununkiminagamatekan (Intended: "My Orca Guardian Spirit"; Actual: "My orca slave") | |||
