Lengua-Maskoy notes

  • Susnik (1977) does not provide a clarification of phonology; the symbols are reproduced here as given.
  • Susnik (1977: 98, 100, 107) also provides a number of slightly different alternative forms, either phonlogically or dialectically conditioned.
  • Possessive marking applies to body parts and kinship terms. Body parts are split between the 'hand' type and the n-series 'waist' type. Kinship terms follow the 'hand' pattern, but may have a distinct, uninflected form for 1st person (singular?) possessors (p. 117).
  • No form is given for the 2nd and 3rd plural of the n-series ('waist' type) possessive markers.
