Impersonal constructions :
Spoken Tsi has an impersonal perfective verb structure used to express non-volition, in which there is no grammatical subject and the 'logical subject' is expressed as an indirect object. The auxiliary used for this structure is [i]ži[/i], derived historically from [i]dži[/i] 'come'.
(1) [i]nạ'rro q!òyo ži[/i]
[tt]1sg=for get_hungry come[/tt]
I got hungry/I'm hungry
As is common in other contexts, [i]ro[/i] is often treated as a serial verb, allowing dropping of the pro...

Indefinite and definite constituents :

Tsi marks indefinite, specific constituents optionally with a preposed [i]mte[/i]~[i]mde[/i] (inanimate) or [i]mre[/i]~[i]mạr[/i] (animate). These typically appear in the postverbal space. Consider the following examples:

Purpose causes :
As well as the converb construction mentioned above, which expresses 'closely bound' purpose and implies the same subject, Tsi also has two more general constructions for expressing purpose. The more standard one is the fairly conventional use of [i]içç[/i], with or without the postposition [i]ro[/i].
(1) [i]ka maŋ dzo ksù-x içç (ro)[/i]

Honorifics :
Tsi has three 'honorifics' originally derived from classifiers, as mentioned previously. These honorifics are syntactically versatile: they can attach to nouns and pronouns, stand alone as anaphora, and appear within the verbal complex.
[i](o)q!ʰạ[/i] (ultra-elevated)
[i](o)hạ[/i] (respectful)
[i](o)hąą[/i] (derogatory/animal)
In addition, the absence of any classifier (which we'll call 'unmarked') expresses (rarely) equality or lower social standing.

Inscription and spoken Tsi :
Tsi exists in a state of relatively differentiated diglossia, although the differences between the scriptual-bureaucratic inscription Tsi and spoken Tsi are not so gapingly distant as to be mutually incomprehensible. Perhaps it is better to think of inscription Tsi as an unusually differentiated, archaising register of Tsi. It is important to note that the 'ideal' of inscription Tsi (which reflects to a greater or lesser extent the cherry-picked spoken Tsi of centuries past) is typically diluted...

Tsi verbs and verbal morphology :
The Tsi verbal complex can be quite elaborate. It consists of, minimally, a main verb (i.e. a single lexical item), which can be simple (a verbal element alone) or complex (including directional prefixes and lexicalised nominal elements). The verb itself can carry certain inflections, and the complex as a whole can also include auxiliaries and serial verbs. The order of elements is approximately:
Directional prefix - incorporated objects - negative - nominal element - main verb - serial...
