* Chhe the dual sign of 2nd pronoun is not used with 1st and 3rd. The numeral two 

 (nakpo) is substituted. 



t e. g. Hanung gothoto'pungmi mii nomi, the hand with which I struck pains me. 

 Literally, what hand with I struck that pains. However much the Tartar tongues eschew 

 relative pronouns, they still can and do use them in this way, and Newari which is one of the 

 simpler Himalayan tongues herein agrees with Vayu which belongs to the complex class. So 

 also you can say for "call the man who has come" Hanungdo dongmi mii khamto, or, more 

 usually, Phista khamto. 



X See numerals. Nakpo, m. ; Nangmi, f . ; Nayung neuter, is no doubt the proper form. 

 But these signs are passing out of use and Nakpo is now often used for all persons, male 

 or female. 



§ I nak pum or Inung nakpo or Inung nakpum. The possessive nung is peculiar to the 

 demonstratives which it distinguishes from the adverbs of time and place. Inungmu or 

 minungmu, of him. Inhemu Minhemu, of here, of theie. Ithemu Mithemu, of now, of then.
