How the form is built
No root relation is asserted in this public record.
Academic teaching rationale
The 3sg suffix vowel encodes gender: i=masculine (-i/-li), u=feminine (-u/-ru). This i/u gender vowel runs through the whole pronominal and adjectival system, independently attested by both Quesada and Suazo (and Munro). Example: 3sg object suffix -i~-li (m) / -u~-ru (f) = him / her
