| 4.7.6. Relative Pronouns |
|
These pronouns are like interrogative pronouns. This is similar to the jo: construtions of Hindi language. The use of relative pronoun is very much restricted in this language.
|
| bo:r iga: watur, wo:r na:wo:r tappe:r a:ndur
who here coame he my father is
‘he who came here is my father’ |
bad aga: me:yinta:, ad na:wa:  a:li: a:nd
which there grazing that my cow is
‘which is grazing there, that is my cow’
|
|
| 4.7.7. Reflexive Pronoun |
|
The reflexive pronoun ta:n in this language does not express the real reflexive sense as in the sentence ‘Ram beats himself’. But, rather conveys the third pronominal meaning of ‘his’ or ‘her’. This reflexive is inflected for both gender and number.
|
ta:na: miya: |
‘her daughter’ |
ta:na: miya:sk |
‘her daughters’ |
| ta:no:r mar |
‘his son’ |
| ta:na:lo:r mark |
‘his sons’ |
|
|
There are instances like, masiya: ta:no:r titor where ta:no:r gives the meaning of ‘he ate on his own’ but does not give the real reflexive meaning as found in the sentence like ‘Ram beats himself’. Besides ta:n these is yet another reflexive morpheme apun which is of Indo-Aryan source. This form also is inflected to gender and number giving the meaning ‘one’s own’.
|
| wo:r apun mari:n hutor |
‘he looks at his own son’ |
| wa:r apuna: lo:hkne: mator |
‘the live in thier own houses’ |
|
| 4.8.0. Oblique Suffixes |
When case suffixes are added to nouns they occur only after oblique suffixes and they are /-d,  -t -, , -n, -e and -Ø/.
|
