Dyadic kinship terms can be formed with the suffix -gulanji/-gulanga, discussed in 4.5.1.3. Kinship terms can also be inflected with the suffix -liji which appears to be a reflexive-possessive suffix indicating that the 'possessor' of the kin is the subject (or the topic) of the clause. This suffix is discussed in 4.5.1.2.
