Pronoun
๐ท โข (gฬeโโ /gฬe/) (before genitive, dative, comitative markers ๐ท (gฬaโ /โ gฬaโ /) or ๐ท๐ (gฬaโ-a /โ gฬaโ /))
- I (first-person independent personal pronoun)
Usage notes
- ๐ท (gฬeโโ /โ gฬeโ /) becomes ๐ท (gฬaโ /โ gฬaโ /) when followed by a case marker that contains the vowel /a/, i.e. genitive /ak/, dative /ra/, or comitative case /da/. Since the sign ๐ท can be read both ways, sometimes scribes added ๐ (e) or ๐ (a) to disambiguate the spelling, e.g.:
- ๐ท๐๐ฐ โ gฬeโโ-a-kam /gฬakam/ โ He is mine.
- The final vowel /e/ becomes /ฤ/ before the enclitic copula, and it is often indicated by the plene spelling, e.g.:
- ๐ท๐๐จ โ gฬeโโ-e-me /gฬฤmen/ โ I, myself
