Marking of possessor and A and/or S with the same set of affixes

[Mateus Carvalho]

Prezados colegas, 
a língua Deni, uma língua Arawá, também apresenta o traço mencionado pelo Jorge para a língua Mako. O marcador de posse de 1 PS em nomes inalienáveis {-u} é o mesmo que marca a 1 PS em verbos nessa língua {-u} ou {-u-}. Nos verbos, a marcação de pessoa pode ocorrer antes ou depois da raiz (ainda não consegui sistematizar isso na língua Deni). Isso ocorre também na língua Kulina (Madiha), da família Arawá e, como o Alan já havia mencionado, na língua Jarawara. Um abraço a todos, 
Mateus Cruz Maciel de Carvalho

Dear Alan (if I may),

Thank you for your reply to my question and for the reference. I will make sure to look into Jarawara and the other Arawá languages.

Regards,

Jorge

Yes Jorge, a language that fits the profile you mentioned is Jarawara, and 
I believe all the languages of the Arawá family are this way. For Jarawara, see 
RMW Dixon, The Jarawara Language of Southern Amazonia (2004).

  Dear everyone, 

Mako [wpc] employs the same set of affixes 
  to mark the possessor on the possessed noun (See example (1) below) and to 
  mark the A and the S on the verb (See examples (2) and (3) below). I was 
  wondering if you were familiar with other languages that share this feature 
  (i.e., same set of markers for nominal possession and verbal subject marking) 
  and could let me know. I am particularly interested in Amazonian languages 
  (especially languages from the North West Amazon) but information on any 
  language will be most welcome. 

Thanks in advance for your help. 
  Best,

  Jorge
