Moi language
Moi is a West Papuan language of the Bird's Head Peninsula of New Guinea.
[ʔ] is in free variation with /k/ in word-final position.
/i, u/ can also be heard as [ɪ, ʊ].
Verbs agree with the grammatical subject for person, number and, in the third-person, for gender. There are three grammatical genders: masculine, feminine and non-human. For the third person plural, the gender distinction applies only for human vs. non-human. For the first person plural, there exists a two way clusivity distinction. The agreement markers are prefixes on the main verb.
Along with agreement prefixes cross-referencing the grammatical number of the subject, the verb stem itself can reflect number too: there may be one stem allomorph with front vowels (singular agreement) and one with back vowels (plural agreement).
