Tell me what you mean by "individual", "groupal" and "class marking".
I'm not sure exactly what you mean by those terms. Interesting how you
use the paucal number. I use that in W. for the first person, which
distinguishes singular, dual, paucal, and plural (altho dual is usually
specifically inclusive, paucal and plural may be inclusive *or*
exclusive, in most dialects).
