Usage notes

Independent pronouns are only used for emphasis, where they would otherwise be expressed with pronominal prefixes attached to verbs. There are two sets of independent pronouns, one of which is used for emphatic purposes and with specific adverbs and participles (e.g., hé miyé (“it is me”), iyé kayéš (“even he/she/it”)) and the other (called “adversative”) for emphasizing a distinct referent in a sentence (e.g., míš (“as for me”)).

The two sets can be used in combination, such as niyé níš (“you yourself”), íŋš iyéke (“it is up to him/her”).
