Bourne (1977 ibid.) gives pronouns for Safeyoka of Folimaso in two case forms as follows:
subject | possessive | |
1 sg. | ŋ-kʌ | n-tʃ-e ≈ nɨ-tʃ-e |
2 sg. | kɨ-kʌ | kɨ-tʃ-e |
3 sg. | kɑ-kʌ | kɑ-tʃ-e |
1 pl. | nɑ-kʷʌ | nɑ-tʃʷ-e |
2 pl. | [se-kʷʌ] | se-tʃʷ-e |
3 pl. | xʌ-kʷʌ | xʌ-tʃʷ-e |
1 dl. | nɑ-kʷi | nɑ-kʷij-e |
2 dl. | xʌ-ki | xʌ-kij-e |
3 dl. | xʌ-ki | xʌ-kij-e |
(The second person singular subject form is not directly attested.)
Bourne's subject forms may be compared with those of Lloyd's (1973: 67) Ampale and West's (1973: 28) Wojokeso:
Lloyd 1973 | West 1973 | Bourne 1977 | |
1 sg. | n-kɐ | ŋ-ko | ŋ-kʌ |
2 sg. | kɨ-kɐ | kɨ-ko | kɨ-kʌ |
3 sg. | kɑ-kɐ | ka-ko | kɑ-kʌ |
1 pl. | nɑ-kʷɐ | na-kʷo | nɑ-kʷʌ |
2 pl. | se-kʷɐ | se-kʷo | [se-kʷʌ] |
3 pl. | hɑβɨ-kɐ | hofɨ-ko | xʌ- kʷʌ |
1 dl. | ne-kʷɐ | ne-kʷo | nɑ-kʷi |
2 dl. | si-kɐ | si-ko | xʌ-ki |
3 dl. | si-kɐ | hi-ko | xʌ-ki |
Lloyd (1967: 67) gives Ampale object prefixes as follows:
1 sg. | nɨ- |
2 sg. | kɨ- |
3 sg. | u- |
1 pl. | nɑ- ≈ ne- |
2 pl. | se- |
3 pl. | u- |
1 dl. | e- |
2 dl. | se- |
3 dl. | u- |
Lloyd (1967: 70) gives Ampale masculine and feminine subject personalizing enclitics as follows:
masculine | feminine | |
1 sg. | -hʷɐʔ-ni | -iʔ-ni |
2 sg. | -hʷɐ-tʃi | -ki |
3 sg. | -hʷɐ | -i |
1 pl. | -hʷɐ-nɑʔ-ni | -βɐ-nɑʔ-ni |
2 pl. | -hʷ-ɑ-tʃi | -β-ɑ-tʃi |
3 pl. | -hʷ-ɑ | -β-ɑ |
1 dl. | -hʷɐ-jɑʔ-i | -βɐ-jɑʔ-i |
