Pronouns

There is only one form of the pronoun. Any change is caused for liaison and not for case.

	singular	plural
1st	m / mwen	nou
2nd	w / ou
3rd	l / li	y / yo

When the pronoun precedes a verb, it is the subject.
When it follows a verb, it is the direct object.
When two pronouns follow a verb, the first is the indirect object and the second is the direct object.
When the pronoun is placed after a noun, it is the possessive adjective.
For the subject of a verb, you usually use the abbreviated form.
For the subject of an adjective or linking verb, use the full form.
For the object of the verb, place the full form after the verb (except for mwen which is at times abbreviated )
