Alhi has no vocative forms for the 1st person pronouns of either number. The possessive forms, ''ej'', ''mo, vi, na'' behave more like suffixes, as they tack onto the ends of the nouns being possessed. If a noun has one adjective after it, it will also have the possessive affix, but if a noun has multiple adjectives after it, only the noun will have the affix. Thus, ''kouda-ej'' 'my family', ''kouda-ej ada-ej'' 'my big family', and ''kouda-ej ada col'' 'my big, good family'.
