====K/T Pronouns====

The "k/t" determiners (including possessives and the definite article; see [[Af Mexee#~~Nouns~~|~~Nouns~~]]) can be used independently as pronouns. They pluralize by inserting the infix ''-uw-'' after the ''k'' of the masculine singular.

The "k/t" determiners (including possessives and the definite article; see [[Af Mexee#K/T Determiners|k/t determiners]]) can be used independently as pronouns. They pluralize by inserting the infix ''-uw-'' after the ''k'' of the masculine singular.

:e.g. ''kan'' "this (one), ''m.''", ''tan'' "this (one), ''f.''", ''kuwan'' "these (ones)"

::''ki'' "the one, ''m.''", ''ti'' "the one, ''f.''", ''kuwi'' "the ones"

There is an additional k/t pronoun with no determiner equivalent:

*''ko'',''to'',''kuwo'': one (indefinite) - e.g. ''ko kale'' "another one"

Line 335:

:'''Gacmooyki''' la taaghi. = The hands (of multiple people; hand is in long plural) were raised.

The definite article ~~has different forms depending on gender~~.

===Particles===

* Masculine: -''ki''

====K/T Determiners====

The definite article attaches to the noun and is subject to sandhi rules.

* Masculine/Plural: -''ki''

* Feminine: -''ti''

There is also a remote definite article. It has a high tone, but does not affect the tonation of the rest of the word.

* Masculine/Plural: -''kíi''

* Feminine: -''tíi''

Other determiners that behave similarly to the definite article:

Line 350:

**''-kaas/taas'': that, those

*Interrogative:

**''-~~kee~~/~~tee~~'': which

**''-kée/tée'': which

***Causes any high tones in the word to be dropped
