Usage notes

 * Note that some verbs have special senses when used reflexively. For example, do not confuse jag lär mig att... ("I learn to...") [reflexive] with du lär mig att... ("you teach me to...") and jag lär mig själv att... ("I teach myself to..."). Here, lär means teach(es) if it is not reflexive, but learn(s) if it is reflexive. Hence the need for the separate pronoun "mig själv" to be used when object and subject agree, but the verb nevertheless should not be used in the reflexive case.
 * (along with ) was popular as a semi-informal spelling around the 1970s to 1980s (as well as long before that, separately), and is therefore seen in many old song lyrics, for example. Usage has now mostly reverted back to mig.

Pronoun

 * : me, to me:

Etymology 2
From. The form originated through assimilation of with a preceding verb form and subsequent unetymological segmentation. This is possibly already an development, since a common Old High German ending of the 1st person plural was -em, thus bittēm wir → *bittē-mir (modern ). The contraction as such is definitely old, though the common form of assimilation, both in written Old High German and written Middle High German, is through loss of the nasal: bittē wir. The form with mir may either be a younger development in Middle High German, or a more colloquial form that only later appeared in writing. Older age is suggested by the great dominance of mir throughout modern dialects of High German. Compare 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬. Compare also,.

Etymology
The third person plural pronoun and the overall plural noun suffix  are unique for Papiamentu and cannot be found in any other language. According to Clements and Parkvall the pronoun and its derived suffix  were introduced into the language just in the 1700s because of the grown need for a plural marking. Apparently before the introduction the need for a plural marking was not felt. Just like in other South American languages the suffix originated in the form "kas-nan" literally "house-they" (ac Lenz).

Compare the Curripaco Arawak suffix and the Dutch suffix.

Searches are being undertaken to find the African connections with the words "iran", "ene", "na", "nan", "inen" and "ane" in the languages Bini, Kwa, Anabonese, Bantu, Kimbundu, Angolar, Fa d'Ambu, Edo and Saotome in the African countries of Sao Tomé, Angola, Equatorial Guinea and Nigeria (see Bartens and Schuchardt). All very improbably.
