Pronouns
1 min read · 93 words
Pronouns are shown as a verb prefix when with an intransitive verb while transitive verbs cause subject pronouns to be a verb prefix and object pronouns as a verb suffix.
Personal pronoun use is varied based on the relationship between the agent's and the patient's dom/sub role (given based on context and verb) when used in a transitive verb, and the subject's role (also based on context and verb) with an intransitive verb.
