se pou + possessor
to belong to or to own
se pou li: it belongs to her, it's hers, she owns it
40
how to emphasize possession
Insert pa before the usual pronoun. Also, note that mwen, ou and li can be contracted with the pa like they are with bay and avek.
```
pa mwen - pa 'm - mine
pa ou - pa 'w - yours
pa li - pa 'l - his, hers, its
pa nou - ours, yours (plural)
pa yo - theirs
```
41
Future tense (ie will do or going to do)
Place pral directly before the verb to make it future tense.
I will lie down - mwen pral kouche
they will wait - yo pral tann
he will finish - li pral fini
you're going to swim - ou pral naje
Pral and Ale are contracted into PRALE to mean will go.
