You'll have to be more specific. Person labels after "third person" are not standard, but specific to certain phenomena in whatever language is being spoken about, and don't necessarily refer to the same thing across languages. If you mean examples of languages that have that many person distinctions... I don't know of any natlangs offhand that use such a term. *Muke! -- website: http://frath.net/ LiveJournal: http://kohath.livejournal.com/ deviantArt: http://kohath.deviantart.com/ FrathWiki, a conlang and conculture wiki: http://wiki.frath.net/
