jaz, ti, on, ona, ono
Singular Subject Pronouns
Jaz means I, ti addresses one familiar person, and on, ona and ono are third-person singular pronouns.
How It Works
Jaz means I, ti addresses one familiar person, and on, ona and ono are third-person singular pronouns. A verb ending often makes the subject clear, so a pronoun is especially useful for contrast.
Start with the verb ending: sem already identifies the speaker, while si addresses the listener. Adding jaz or ti can contrast the two people. Ona is a subject form; it does not remain ona when the same person becomes an object.
