==== Possessive pronouns ====
The possessive pronouns vary according to person, number, [[clusivity]], and possessive class (a class or o class). Example: {{lang|mi|tāku pene}} (my pen), {{lang|mi|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. {{lang|mi|tā tātou karaihe}} (our class), {{lang|mi|tō rāua whare}} (their [dual] house); {{lang|mi|ā tātou karaihe}} (our classes). The neuter one must be followed by a noun and only occur for singular first, second and third persons. {{lang|mi|Taku}} is my, {{lang|mi|aku}} is my (plural, for many possessed items). The plural is made by deleting the initial [t].{{sfn|Biggs|1998|pages=46–48}}
