| Flagging | S-argument flagging | yes/no | 'The absolutive case is used for NPs in S and O function. The absolutive NP is morphologically unmarked in the singular, and in the plural it is marked by the morpheme –na. This plural absolutive marker is the same morpheme as the so-called
plural relator. In certain cases, the plural absolutive is marked by the use of the enclitic third person plural pronoun –lla (short form –l) (for the enclitic pronouns...'

| Indexation | S-argument indexed | yes | 'In OHu, the third person absolutive subject in both the singular and plural is often, but not always, cross-referenced on the verb by the morpheme –b. While seemingly limited to third person S NPs in the intransitive, it is clear from the antipassive that this –b morpheme is found with all persons and numbers.'
(Campbell 2007: 31)
'The S-agreement morpheme –b is not found in MHu. The intransitive verbal form in MHu consists of the verbal construct with the intransitive marker –a plus the optional addition of an enclitic pronoun.' (Campbell 2007: 33)
The S of the intransitive sentence in MHu is typically indicated by the use of absolute enclitic personal pronouns, regardless of whether or not there is an expressed absolutive NP (Cambell 2007: 34).

FIY - quotation below shows that what comes after the verb in the antipassive is also referential and definite (the breasts)
Following Allani’s preparations for the feast, we read: “The bakers repeatedly make (antipassive) (their wares) in the correct way, the cupbearers come in (intransitive), the cooks continually bring in (antipassive) the breasts, they repeatedly come (in) (intransitive) with bowls (of food) at mealtime (lit.: in the time of the food)” (KBo 32.13 i 21-23)

Furthermore, the NP which fills the O spot in (2.26) is not a generic substantive but an actual personal name, which is by nature definite' (Campbell 2007: 42)
