Editing Egyptian language (section)

===Pronouns===
Egyptian has three different types of [[personal pronoun]]s: suffix, [[clitic|enclitic]] (called "dependent" by Egyptologists) and independent pronouns. A number of verbal endings can also be added to the [[infinitive]] to form the stative and are regarded by some linguists{{sfn|Loprieno|1995|p=65}} as a "fourth" set of personal pronouns. They bear close resemblance to their Semitic counterparts. The three main sets of personal pronouns are as follows:

Demonstrative pronouns have separate masculine and feminine singular forms and common plural forms for both genders:

Finally, interrogative pronouns bear a close resemblance to their Semitic and [[Berber language|Berber]] counterparts:
