Rh CHAPTER IV. The Pronoun. In Irish there are nine classes of Pronouns:&#8203;—&#8203;Personal, Reflexive, Prepositional, Relative, Demonstrative, Indefinite, Distributive, Interrogative, and Reciprocal pronouns. There are no Possessive pronouns in Irish.

Each of the above may take an emphatic increase, equivalent to the English suffix self.

The word is added to the personal pronouns to form the reflexive pronouns; as, I struck myself.
