sinuma (Kana spelling シヌマ)

  1. he, she, it (third-person singular pronoun)

Usage notes

[edit]

This word is not actually a proper pronoun, but is often used when it is absolutely necessary to point directly to a third person in conversation. The proper third-person pronoun in Ainu would be the lack of any personal pronoun at all, i.e., it has a null value.
