Comment:
Ad Feature 17 "Special dependent personal pronouns": The dependent, non-emphatic 3SG subject form a can only occur in combination with the copula de, it cannot appear with the copula da; cf. Example 52. Ad Feature 83 "Transitive motion verbs: 'pull': This illustrates that na is used in the context of 'position at'.
