In some Cariban languages, a small group of verbs show a divergent first person inflection pattern, a topic which has not received much attention in the literature.
This is illustrated for \hixka in \cref{tab:hixintro},\footnote{The presence of a \gl{1+2} person value implies that of a \gl{1+3} value.
This is usually expressed with a free pronoun combined with third person morphology in Cariban languages, so it is not represented as a distinct value in \cref{tab:hixintro} and other paradigm tables.
Further, TAM suffixes in the attested forms are omitted, since a) the focus lies on the prefixes and stems, and b) full paradigms with the same TAM suffix are rare in the available sources.
Standard IPA symbols are used in the transcription of Cariban languages, except for coronal rhotics, which are simply represented with \ort{r}, rather than \ort{ɽ} for \wayana or \ort{ɾ̠} for \maqui etc.
In languages with strong morphophonological processes and/or non-phonemic orthography the original form is shown in an additional line when presented in interlinearized examples.
This is illustrated for \hixka in \cref{tab:hixintro},\footnote{All forms under discussion have prefixes from \posscite[16-18]{gildea1998} "Set I" paradigm, which is conditioned by \gl{tam} suffixes.
The latter are omitted in tables, since a) the focus lies on the prefixes and stems, and b) full paradigms with the same \gl{tam} suffix are rare in the available sources.
Standard IPA symbols are used in the transcription languages, except for coronal rhotics of Cariban, which are simply represented with \ort{r}, rather than \ort{ɽ} for \wayana or \ort{ɾ̠} for \maqui etc.
\textcite{gildea2018reconstructing} is followed in using \ort{ə} for the \PC reconstructed by \textcite{meira2005southern}, although it was likely more back \parencite{gildea2010story}.}
with paradigms of four verbs, all members of the \gl{sa} inflectional class.
In this language, the verb \qu{to be} diverges from other \gl{sa} verbs like \qu{to fall} by having a first person marker \obj{w-}, rather than \obj{k-}.
