Personal pronouns
The personal pronouns are:
Unlike any other elements of the sentence, the personal pronouns compulsorily distinguish the number singular from the plural.
In the 3rd person, a double distinction is made. There are, actually, two forms, referring respectively to either animated beings or inanimate entities.
Le forme di prima e di seconda persona e le forme di terza persona animata distinguono, inoltre, una forma utilizzata in contesti formali, o di cortesia. Tali forme derivano da forme pronominali dette reali, ossia destinate nel contesto in cui ci si rivolga ad una persona di rango superiore, e in tal modo utilizzate nel primo periodo medio. Nel corso del tempo il loro uso si è formalizzato in una distinzione di formalità e informalità.
(In questa grammatica vengono usate nelle frasi da esempio primariamente le forme informali, in quanto considerate più familiari nel contesto parlato.)
For the 1st plural person, two forms are distinguished. The first form is called the first inclusive plural person, which includes both the speaker and the listener, while the second form is called the first exclusive plural person, which includes the speaker but excludes the listener.
All forms, if adjoined by the preposition gü, play the role of an indeclinable possessive pronoun, being placed after a demonstrative pronominal form.
