Saying it about mine, yours, theirs
One thing

Several things
| Degree | menikilemine | senikileyours | anıqılahis / hers | biznikileours | siznikileyours (pl.) | alanıqılatheirs |

Any thing takes the third-person ending, not only these: bu tübdegidi, bıla tübdegidile. In texts biznikile is usually kesibiznikile, "our own people", and a surname with -nıqıla names a family: Dudalanıqıla, "the Dudas".
