 ### Pronouns
 
-TKTK personal pronouns
+There are ten personal pronouns: a singular and a plural pronoun for
+each of the first and second persons, and three singular and three
+plural third-person pronouns, distinguished by gender.
+Each pronoun has forms for the different cases, although only the
+second person pronouns have vocative forms.
+
+The first and second person pronouns seem to be related to the verbal
+agreement affixes.
+The third-person masculine and feminine pronouns appear to derive from
+the verbal participle adjective "fomódkʰo" (meaning 'sapient' or
+'capable of language', active participle of the 5th form verb of the
+root m-d-kʰ), while the neuter pronouns derive from the verbal
+participle adjectives "moróŋpo" and "moroŋóp" (respectively meaning
+"arriving, nearby" or "leaving, distant"; passive and active
+participles of the 6th-form verb of the root r-ŋ-p).
+
+The forms of the personal pronouns are given in the table below:
