3rd person reflexive(s) (was Re: Greenberg's Word Order Universals

    I am thinking of using complete reduplication of the appropriate personal
pronoun to indicate 3rd person reflexive:

    example in Standard:

    He talked to him about hishis grades.

    (in this example, _hishis_ refers to the 2nd male person in the sentence)

    makee pidjin/Neu Spelin Inglis esampul:

    Hi bin talk hi in rigard hihi plenti graed.

    (in this example, _hihi_ refers to the 2nd male person in the sentence)
hehe...
