The possessive pronouns vary according to person, number, clusivity, and possessive class (a class or o class). Example: tāku pene (my pen), āku pene (my pens). For dual and plural subject pronouns, the possessive form is analytical, by just putting the possessive particle (tā/tō for singular objects or ā/ō for plural objects) before the personal pronouns, e.g. "tā tātou karaihe" (our class), "tō rāua whare" (their house); "ā tātou karaihe" (our classes). The neuter one must be followed by a noun and only occur for singular first, second and third persons. "Taku" is my, "aku" is my (plural, for many possessed items). The plural is made by deleting the initial [t.
