switch-reference system (str)
a.k.a.
an absolute deranking system where the same-subject and different-subject reference tracking constructions systematically use different deranked constructions. Example: in Tauya nono imai-te-pa ai mene-a-te pai aʔate-pa... She carried the child and came and stayed, they hit [= killed] the pigs and... imai-te-pa [(3sg)-carry-get-SS] is a deranked predicate form with the same-subject deranking morpheme -pa since the following subject is also she, and mene-a-te [stay-3sg-DS] is a deranked predicate form with the different-subject deranking morpheme -te since the following subject switches to they. (Section 16.4)
