¹⁾ Object prefix is attached after a subject prefix and before a derivational prefix and a verb, e.g. Uwa niwisigisen. ‘Don't listen to him.’
²⁾ Used if the direct object is a third-person non-human object, e.g. to- + a- → ta-, etc.
³⁾ When it is attached to an object prefix, it loses the -o, e.g. mio- + ni- → mini- (except when it is attached to the third-person plural object prefix ki-, e.g. mio- + ki- → mioki-).
⁴⁾ Attached to the first-person singular object prefix i-, the prefix yo- becomes i-, i.e. yo- + i- → ini-.
