A Finnish sentence can have at most one of each. A Pas clitic is -always attached to the first word ("Aripas juo maitoa") or phrase such as NP -("minun poikanipas juo maitoa"). A Kin clitic can be attached to almost any word; if the -same as Pas, Kin must come first ("Arikinhan juo maitoa"). Some combinations are clumsy -but presumably OK ("Arikinpas"). If the verb is first, it doesn't seem to allow Kin -(*"juokin Ari maitoa"). - -The following is a list of combinatory possibilities. Adverbs (represented by "nyt") -can be added ad libitum - at most two of them then become carriers of clitics -("nythän Ari juo maitoa täälläkin"). - - --- declaratives and questions - -(Notice that, in the presence of "ei", Kin is "kaan", otherwise "kin".) - -ari Pas? ei?
