With an owner
| One owned | Several owned | |
|---|---|---|
| my | mayım my butter | maylarım my butters |
| your | mayıŋ your butter | maylarıŋ your butters |
| his / her | mayı his / her butter | mayları his / her butters |
| our | mayıbız our butter | maylarıbız our butters |
| you all's | mayığız you all's butter | maylarığız you all's butters |

The overlap in the last rows is real, not a mistake: mayları can mean "his / her butters", "their butter", or "their butters" — context decides.
