Person Marking Alignment refers to how person agreement markers on the verb correspond to the types of verbal arguments, such as the subject of transitive clauses, subject of intransitive clauses, and object of transitive clauses. <br><br>A 'yes' value indicate that the language has one type of marker for subjects of transitive and intransitive clauses, and another for objects of transitive clauses. See Siewierska (2008).<br><br>For example, in Tawala, the subject marker for transitive and intransitive verbs is a prefix, such as the third-person prefix <i>i-</i>, but the marker for the object of a transitive verb is a suffix, such as the third-person marker <i>-ya</i>, as in the the sentence <i>i-bowi-ye-ya</i> '3sg.A-deny-TR-3sg.P' for 'He denied him.' <br><br><b>Note:</b> Languages which do not exhibit subject and object agreement on the verb will be marked <b>N/A</b> for this value.<br><br><b>Reference</b><br>Siewierska, Anna. 2008.
