Unlike any other elements of the sentence, the personal pronouns compulsorily distinguish the number singular from the plural.


In the 3<sup><small>rd</small></sup> person, a double distinction is made. There are, actually, two forms, referring respectively to either ''animated'' beings or ''inanimate'' entities.

In the 1<sup><small>st</small></sup>, 2<sup><small>nd</small></sup> and 3<sup><small>rd</small></sup> animate persons an additional distinction is made between ''formal'' and ''informal'' forms. Formal pronouns are used in formal contexts, out of politeness, and are derived from former so-called ''royal pronouns'', reserved for people with a higher social status in the earlier middle period. Over time, their usage have changed in a distinction of ''politeness / familiarity''.

Personal pronouns

Personal pronouns convey only the first two persons (1st and 2nd) in both numbers. Unlike nominal or adjectival roots, these root are monosyllabic.

They are declined with the same endings as the nominal declension, and select only the animate plural ending, as they refer always to animated entities.

All forms, when declined in the genitive case, can play the role of an indeclinable possessive adjective, being placed before a noun, or the role of indeclinable possessive pronoun, being placed before a demonstrative pronominal form.
