| '''Nominative (subject) pronouns'''
| |
| | |
| The dal’qörian ''nominative'' personal pronouns (the subject of the sentence or clause) are:
| |
|
| |
| {| border="1"
| |
| |+
| |
| |-
| |
| | '''binä
| |
| | ''I/I am''
| |
| |-
| |
| | '''diö'''
| |
| | ''you/you are''
| |
| |-
| |
| | '''mæ'''
| |
| | ''he/he is''
| |
| |-
| |
| | '''sia'''
| |
| | ''she/she is''
| |
| |-
| |
| | '''éren'''
| |
| | ''they/they''
| |
| |-
| |
| | '''tiÞ'''
| |
| | ''it/it is''
| |
| |-
| |
| | '''ména'''
| |
| | ''we/we are''
| |
| |}
| |
| | |
| There are also two impersonal pronouns in dal'qörian: '''minä'''-''you/one'' and '''minäla'''-''they'', and these are used when referring to people in general, the subjunctive mood, and to equate the use of the passive tense in English (see '''Verbs'''):
| |
|
| |
| * '''am iáda, minä näocr nörasägrax dal'qörian!''' ''One cannot learn dal'qörian in a day!
| |
| | |
| * '''minäla gä’escanostr di abödä,, qösra tiÞ gé’stæméras'''. ''The house was demolished because it was dangerous.'' (lit: ''They demolished the house, because it was unsafe'').
| |
|
| |
| As you can see, the subject pronouns can also carry the present tense inflections of the verb to be: ''am, are, is''. In dal'qörian, one can assume that ''am/are/is'' can always be taken as read when a noun or pronoun is:
| |
| | |
| ː Followed by a present participle (a verb with the ia inflection)<BR/>ːFollowed by an uninflected adjective (including modifying words such as ''very/extremely'')
| |
| | |
| ''am/are/is'' are not to be taken as read when a noun or pronoun is:
| |
| | |
| ː Followed by a modal verb (see '''Verbs-''Modals''''')<BR/>ːFollowed by the infinitive of a verb (a verb that ends in '''r''')<BR/>ːFollowed by the imperfect and perfect past tense of a verb<BR/>ːFollowed by an inflected adjective
| |
| | |
| examples:
| |
|
| |
| * '''binä göria nöra'''. ''I am going now.''
| |
| | |
| * '''di gadörajel tädø'''. ''The dogs are tired.''
| |
| | |
| * '''dörac iáda, ména gä’vecsár!''' ''We argued all day!''
| |
| | |
| * '''öcra tirimiÞ, sia gé’námaroqu disiri'''. ''She was very depressed for a long time.''
| |
| | |
| * '''iáda, Gáré recévria ni Bemöa'''. ''Gary is getting a BMW today.''
| |
| | |
| * '''stæ’irønet, vonéri sol, eviár binä abödä'''. ''I rarely get home before 6.''
| |
|
| |
| * '''éren voltir ni didérämös'''. ''They want a drink.''
| |

| |
| | |
| '''Accusative (direct object) pronouns'''
| |
| | |
| The ''accusative'' pronoun is the 'object' of the sentence or the thing that is affected by the action of the verb:
| |
| | |
| * I asked '''him'''.
| |
| | |
| * She gave '''her''' the book.
| |
| | |
| * They told '''us''' to go-away!
| |
| | |
| The dal'qörian accusative (or objective) pronouns are:
| |
| | |
| {| border="1"
| |
| |+
| |
| |-
| |
| | '''binöra'''
| |
| | ''me/myself''
| |
| |-
| |
| | '''diöra'''
| |
| | ''you/yourself''
| |
| |-
| |
| | '''mæöra'''
| |
| | ''him/himself''
| |
| |-
| |
| | '''siöra'''
| |
| | ''her/herself''
| |
| |-
| |
| | '''érenöra'''
| |
| | ''them/themselves''
| |
| |-
| |
| | '''tiÞöra'''
| |
| | ''it/itself''
| |
| |-
| |
| | '''ménöra'''
| |
| | ''us/ourselves''
| |
| |}
| |
| | |
| '''NOTE''': Unlike English, the accusative personal pronouns ''you'' (pl & sing) and ''it'' are not the same as the nominative.
| |
| | |
| '''Dative (indirect object) pronouns'''
