The Instrument marker: -nan
[(Aux) Verb (Neg) CP-S (CP-O) CP-Instrument]

This is similar to “with” or “per”, denoting a tool being used to accomplish a task. The suffix is “-nan”.

The Location markers: -ha and -ya
[(Aux) Verb (Neg) CP-S CP-Time/CP-Place]

Similar to the English preposition "at", there are two location markers. "-ha" specifies a location in space, and "-ya" specifies a location in time.

If more precision is required, a postposition can be added after the "-ha"/"-ya", such as "obée" for "during". These postpositions never change their form and cannot take affixes.
