► 1 The object endings meaning ‘me’ and ‘you’ have the same form: ‑c.
► 2 The ending ‑t is the control marker. If it is followed by ‑c, the ‑t is dropped. If it is followed by nothing, the object is an understood ‘him,’ ‘her,’ ‘it,’ or ‘them.’
► 3 Note that the ‘us’ suffix, ‑úŋɬ, is always stressed.
► 4 Notice that there is no example given for ‘he/she/it/they help me’ or for 'he/she/it/they help us' or for ‘he/she/it/they help you.’ A special construction is needed to translate such sentences. To express a first-person (‘me’, 'us') or second-person (‘you’) object with a ‘he/she/it/they’ subject, Klallam uses the passive construction. The passive is discussed in detail in §31. Here we will just show the basic pattern:
kʷənáŋətəŋ cn. ‘He/she/it/they help me.’
kʷənáŋətəŋ st. ‘He/she/it/they help us.’
kʷənáŋətəŋ cxʷ. ‘He/she/it/they help you.’
 | ʔuʔə́y̓ u cxʷ. | ‘Are you okay?’ |
 | ʔáwə! kʷənáŋəc či. | ‘No! Help me!’ |
| kʷənáŋəc caʔn. | ‘I’ll help you.’ |
| háʔnəŋ cn! | ‘Thank you!’ |
