In Synja Khanty, the verb is agreed with the subject (agent) in number and person. There are two verbal conjugations: a determinate and an indeterminate. The number of the object (singular, dual, plural) is always reflected on the verb form, but verbal suffix does not carry information about the person of the object (Honti 1984: 99‒101, Onina 2009, S. O.).
