{{tp|ki}} refers to the speaker, and things near the speaker. {{tp|si}} refers to the listener, and things near the listener. {{tp|wi}} refers to everything else. If the words {{tp|ki}}, {{tp|si}}, and {{tp|wi}} are hard to distinguish, then the alternatives '''{{tp|koni}}''', '''{{tp|soni}}''', and '''{{tp|ani}}''' are possible.
