Mini-pronouns are shrunken forms of pronouns that are used to shorten parts of a phrase. They're like little babies and so they need to go in the <Link to="/phrase-structure/kids-section/">kids' section</Link> 👶. export function ServantIcon() {

## Where they're used ## Where they're used
Mini pronouns can only be used as one of three things: For Pashto learners, it can be confusing to see these little pronouns peppered in sentences. They can seem ambiguous and confusing, as if they could mean *anything*. Thankfully Pashto gives us another very simple rule to know what mini-pronouns can be used for. Mini pronouns are only used to "shrink" 🪄 or replace **two things**:
1. The **object** of a **present transitive** verb 1. The **servant** <ServantIcon /> of a <VP />
2. The **subject** of a **past transitive** verb 3. A **possesive**
3. A **possesive** pronoun
Below are some examples of how mini pronouns can be used in the place of regular pronouns. The mini pronouns are used when you don't need a strong emphasis on the pronoun. ### 1. As a shrunken servant
### 1. As the object of a present transitive verb <div className="alert alert-info" role="alert">
<Chart titleRow={["w/ reg. pronoun", "w/ mini pronoun 👶"]} opts={opts}>{[ What's a servant?
[
{ p: "زه تا وینم", f: "zu taa weenum", e: "I see you"},
{ p: "زه دې وینم", f: "zu de weenum", e: "I see you"},
],
[
{ p: "هلک ما وهي", f: "haluk maa wahee", e: "The boy's hitting me" },
{ p: "هلک مې وهي", f: "haluk me wahee", e: "The boy's hitting me" },
],
[
{ p: "دوي ولې مونږ وهی؟", f: "dwee wăle moonG wahée?", e: "Why are they hitting us?" },
{ p: "دوي ولې مو وهی؟", f: "dwee wăle mU wahée?", e: "Why are they hitting us?" },
],
]}</Chart>
### 2. As the subject of a past transitive verb There's an explanation about what a <strong>servant</strong> <ServantIcon /> is in the section on <Link to="/phrase-structure/vp/#2-with-non-past-transitive-verbs-">VPs</Link>. Basically a servant is either:
<Chart titleRow={["w/ reg. pronoun", "w/ mini pronoun 👶"]} opts={opts}>{[ - the **object** <NP /> of a non-past transitive verb
[ - the **subject** <NP /> of a past-tense transitive verb
{ p: "ما ډوډۍ وخوړله", f: "maa DoDuy óokhoRula", e: "I ate food"},
{ p: "ډوډۍ مې وخوړله", f: "DoDuy me óokhoRula", e: "I ate food"},
],
[
{ p: "هغه واده کړی دی", f: "haghú waadu kúRey dey", e: "He's gotten married" },
{ p: "واده یې کړی دی", f: "waadu ye kúRey dey", e: "He's gotten married" },
],
[
{ p: "ما ولیدې", f: "maa óoleede", e: "I saw you" },
{ p: "ومې لیدې", f: "óo-me-leede", e: "I saw you" },
],
]}</Chart>
### 3. As a possesive pronoun We call these the **servant** <ServantIcon /> of the <VP /> because they're not the **king** <KingIcon /> of the phrase -- they don't control the verb. (There is no servant with an intransitive verb.)
</div>
The "servant" <NP /> in a <VP /> can be "shrunken" 🪄 and replaced with a mini pronoun.
#### Examples with non-past transitive verbs
Have a look at this present tense phrase.

The object <NP /> <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "تا", f: "taa", e: "you" }} /> is the servant <ServantIcon />, so we can shrink 🪄 it into a mini-pronoun and then put it in the <Link to="/phrase-structure/kids-section">kids' section</Link>.

Whatever the servant <NP /> is, the whole block is shrunken and replaced by a mini pronoun. For example we can have a really long <NP /> like <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "ستا د مور خوندوره ډوډۍ", f: "staa du mor khwundawara DoDuy", e: "your mother's tasty food" }} />. Have a look at the blocks that make up this phrase by clicking on the <i className="fas fa-cubes" />, then see what happens when you click on the <MiniButton /> below to shrink the servant.

#### Examples with past-tense transitive verbs
With **past-tense transitive verbs, the servant <ServantIcon /> is the subject**. See what happens when you shrink the servant with this kid of VP. (Click <MiniButton /> below)
