The verb to be, is expressed in Chayma by az. The possessive pronouns precede the substantive; upatay, in my house, properly my house in. All the prepositions and the negation pra are incorporated at the end, as in the Tamanac.
Women were made class-leaders, stewards, and Sunday-school superintendents, and employed in these several capacities long before the specific interpretations of the pronouns were made.
She thought that the words were rather treacherous and scowled; and yet she was cognizant that gender neutral pronouns akin to a chair and having thrown water at her furry child weren't outward symbols of love although they might be equivalent to how she was treated in Peggy's home as one of their family. "Are you hungry, Rick?" she asked. "Yes, please." "Good."
There are in Japanese no relative pronouns and no temporal conjunctions; conjunctions, that is, for connecting consecutive events. The want of these words precludes the admission of afterthoughts. Postscripts in speech are impossible. The functions of relatives are performed by position, explanatory or continuative clauses being made to precede directly the word they affect.
"Just that and no more." "How did you hear?" "A cable, to-day." "But Mrs. Farrington said she was going to Italy." "Perhaps she is." "Not if she is coming home." "She isn't." Theodora looked mystified, as much at the ambiguity of the pronouns as at the fact itself. "Babe is coming home alone," Hubert added. "Is she ill?" "Quite well, she says." "Then what in the world is she coming for?"
"I've just got Miss Damaris quieted off to sleep, and if she's roused up again, I won't answer for what mayn't happen." "But what has happened? I insist upon knowing," Theresa declared, in growing offence and agitation. "Ah! that's just what we should be thankful enough to have you tell us, Miss," Mrs. Cooper chimed in with heavy and reproachful emphasis upon the pronouns.
Elton does not talk to Miss Fairfax as she speaks of her. We all know the difference between the pronouns he or she and thou, the plainest spoken amongst us; we all feel the influence of a something beyond common civility in our personal intercourse with each other a something more early implanted. We cannot give any body the disagreeable hints that we may have been very full of the hour before.
I am aware that the progress which she has made between the writing of the two letters must seem incredible. Only those who are with her daily can realize the rapid advancement which she is making in the acquisition of language. You will see from her letter that she uses many pronouns correctly. She rarely misuses or omits one in conversation.
There are some nouns which change their form, or rather are abbreviated when used in the vocative case, e.g. ko mei, not ko kmei = Oh mother; ko pa, not ko kpa = Oh father. These, however, are all of them nouns showing relationships. Pronouns.
"Alas!" said Belinda, "how many, many women have deplored their having trusted to their hearts only." "Their hearts! but I said your heart: mind your pronouns, my dear; that makes all the difference. But, to be serious, tell me, do you really and bona fide, as my old uncle the lawyer used to say, love Mr. Vincent?" "No," said Belinda, "I do not love him yet."
