[Lingtyp] Two 1SG pronouns (in reported speech and beyond)

[Guillaume Jacques]

Dear Denys,

This is not exactly what you are looking for, but in Stau, the 1sg normally
does not have a distinct ergative form, except in hybrid indirect speech
where we exceptionally find ŋa-w 1sg-erg (see (PDF) Sketch of Stau |
