I, too, have wondered about that. The solution I adopted for the Meghean
translation of the Lord's Prayer is examplified by the line below, where _ñoch_
"day" receives the genitive infix -i-:

Mad mebhado ñhoicho acem,
[mad me'Bado 'Nojxo 'atSem]
mad  me- bad   -o  h-  ñoch -i-  -o  ac -em
give our bread ACC the day  POSS ACC to us
"Give to us our bread of the day,"
