If you want to say "your son", you can use "e" instead of "ku". However, with a word called father, an elder brother, and an elder sister, you can use "ekor" instead of "ku", or use the word of the next table.
The inside of () is omissible. You can use both kacaha and kaca.
In the Saru dialect, when you continue the word which starts in one character of a, u, e, or o after "ku", you change each into ka, ku, ke, or ko. The accent is attached to ka, ku, ke, or ko.
