There are other special constructions that also take place in certain specific environments. For example, quantificatives and nouns can be in apposition to other nouns that independent subjects or objects: "ʔuhkʔo'nisɛ'mǎn, ho't ʔaku'hpanʔuhkɛ'nì" "He assembled all (of) his people, it is said" < "he assembled, it is said, his people, all." Additionally, a possessive can serve in the same syntactical functions that a noun can. For example, "ta'čɔhak ʔu'rǐhč, hi'yuhɔ'nì" "The chief's house was (made of) grass" ("ta'čɔhaku" "the chief", possessor noun, + "ʔu'rihči" "his house", alienably possessed noun, the combination serving as independent subject).
