Inconsistencies regarding proximality and distality
editComparing the personal pronouns table in the current article to the one in the article at https://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Georgian_grammar, I notice that:
- there is an inconsistency with respect to the Georgian entries in both tables regarding which of them are indicated as proximal and distal;
- there is an inconsistency in the current table which explains "That (close to speaker)" whereas, in English, "that" is used for distal entities rather than proximal ones.
I intend to change the current table in order to resolve those inconsistencies, thus:
| Mingrelian | Laz | Georgian | |
|---|---|---|---|
| I | ma | ma | me |
| You (sing.) | si | si | šen |
| This (proximal) | ena | aya | es |
| That (distal) | ina | ia | is |
| We | čki/čkə | čki | čven |
| You (pl.) | tkva | tkvan | tkven |
| These (proximal) | (t)enepi | antepe | eseni |
| Those (distal) | (t)inepi | entepe | isini |
But since I have no or hardly any knowledge of each of both languages, I thought I would check whether I am not introducing errors.Redav (talk) 12:08, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
