Datapoint Berbice Dutch/Marking of possessor noun phrases

In the less common dislocated possessive, the possessor-possessed relationship is marked by the occurrence of the 3SG possessive pronoun ʃi.
A construction which normally denotes source or a partitive relationship (DP fan DP, where fan means 'from') was readily accepted by speakers with possessive interpretations. This did not, however, occur in spontaneous usage. I have not included it here, therefore.
