The 3rd person pronouns of a language are either identical or derivationally related to its <i>non-remote</i> demonstratives.  For instance, Brahui has the demonstratives <i>dÄ</i> 'proximal,' <i>o</i> 'medial,' and <i>Ä“</i> 'distal,' and only the medial <i>o</i> acts as a 3rd person pronoun as well.
