      Each of those pronouns begins with a root composed of a consonant [C], and a vowel [V1]. That root by itself is usually the Subjective form. The other 2 forms modify the vowel [V2] and add a suffix. H-E -- [C][V1] H-I-M -- [C][V2][M-Suffix] H-I-S -- [C][V2][S-Suffix] 6/x

      Sometimes, the first consonant C is modified [C2] too. SH-E -- [C][V1] H-E-R -- [C2][V2][R-Suffix] H-E-RS -- [C2][V2][RS-Suffix] 7/x

      And finally: TH-EY -- [C][V1] TH-E-M -- [C][V2][M-Suffix] TH-EI-RS -- [C][V2][RS-Suffix] 7/x

      All together, we get rules for generating the 3 cases like this: Subjective [C1] [V1] Objective [C1 | C2] [V2] [M | R] Possessive [C1 | C2] [V2] [S | RS] 8/x

      Cool! What kinds of pronouns can we generate with this ruleset? Start by picking a consonant C1 C1 = "X" Then pick a vowel V1 V1 = "E" The vowels are all E or I sounds in English. Pronouns like that will be more recognizable, but really limit how weird you can get. 9/x

      C1="X" Let's change V1 to be a little more specific about the sound. V1="EH" Now we need a V2, a vowel sound that is similar to V1, but distinguishable. V2="EE" And last we need some suffixes S1 and S2. Usually M, S and RS, but feel free to get weird. S1="M" S2="RS" 10/x

      So here's our new pronoun set: C1="X" V1="EH" V2="EE" S1="M" S2="R/S" Subjective: Xeh Objective: Xeem Possessive: Xeers Try saying it out loud. "Xeh is such a rad human." "I had a great time with xeem" "It was so easy to adopt xeer new pronouns." 11/x

      Let's try another! This time WEIRDER. The root consonant will have a second version C2, and the root vowel will be something other than an "E" sound. But we'll stick to the common suffixes. C1="GR" V1="OH" C2="GL" V2="UH" S1="R" S2="S" 12/x

      "Gro is kinda shy, but I still like glur. Gro shared glus meal with me." Definitely weirder. We can see how moving away from "E" vowels changes things. The "OH" sound is especially confusing and might be worth avoiding. What kinds of pronouns can *you* generate? 13/x

      This is great! I will add one quibble: there are at least five forms of personal pronouns: nominative, accusative, possessive/genitive, reflexive, and the other possessive (not sure what it's called--the one used in clauses).

      substantive possessive as opposed to the possessive adjective that's usually specified. the reflexive pronoun can be derived from the accusative, though. there's also indicative pronouns, but those are just determined by plurality

          and substantive possessive can be derived from possessive adjective. there's also another pronoun-like property that needs to be addressed if you're dealing with both people and objects, which is whether you can use a bare indicative pronoun without being insulting

          which more or less fully approximates whether you're talking about an object or a person
