What is wrong with it? {vIponglu'} does specify a first person object.
You're right; I was forgetting it had *-lu'* on it.
Hm... wait a second. First I was going to object, saying that vI- has a third person object. But I looked closer and remembered that {-lu'} reverses that. So it IS true that the /word/ has a first person object, but the prefix itself does NOT.
No, the prefixes mean something different when used with *-lu'. vI-* means first-person singular object; *wI-* means first-person plural object; *Da-* means second-person singular object; *bo-* means second-person plural object. With *-lu',* these prefixes don't indicate any sort of subject. -- SuStel http://trimboli.name
