Re: Ergative Construction?

myo' /mjo?/ "to hunt (something)
myo'es /mjo?@s/ "to hunt things"
myo'a /mjo?a/ "to have hunted something"
myo'as /mjo?as/ "to have hunted things"

(Note these can also be 3rd person singular "he hunts it", "he hunts them")

OOPS! I meant that with the pronoun "ne" in front of these, they can be 3rd person
singular, but not without it.

ne myo' "he hunts (it)"
ne myo'a "he hunted (it)"
ne myo'es "he hunts them"
ne myo'as "he hunted them"
