Κάλη. Των ης μαι υν πρωνώμνε περσωνάλ, ναι;

Your tourist guide syntax made me confuse that for "and [what about] [the thing]/what I said?" xD Which now that I think of pretty much means the same.

*at most an anserine one xD.

The mantac timudant ieugicarn thing is a categorization. The adverbial ones 'are' personal because they're counted among personal pronouns.*

1.3.2.1 Personal (truly personal)
1.3.2.2 Adverbial
