Pronoun
edit𒂷 • (g̃e₂₆ /g̃e/) (before genitive, dative, comitative markers 𒂷 (g̃a₂ /g̃a/) or 𒂷𒀀 (g̃a₂-a /g̃a/))
- I (first-person independent personal pronoun)
Usage notes
edit- 𒂷 (g̃e₂₆ /g̃e/) becomes 𒂷 (g̃a₂ /g̃a/) when followed by a case marker that contains the vowel /a/, i.e. genitive /ak/, dative /ra/, or comitative case /da/. Since the sign 𒂷 can be read both ways, sometimes scribes added 𒂊 (e) or 𒀀 (a) to disambiguate the spelling, e.g.:
- 𒂷𒀀𒄰 ― g̃e₂₆-a-kam /g̃akam/ ― He is mine.
- The final vowel /e/ becomes /ē/ before the enclitic copula, and it is often indicated by the plene spelling, e.g.:
- 𒂷𒂊𒈨 ― g̃e₂₆-e-me /g̃ēmen/ ― I, myself
