    I wish you had used Maria as the subject in both sentences so that the viewer could get a better idea that the form changes from Maria (in nominative/accusative--whether it be the subject in a transitive or intransitive sentence) to Mariak (in ergative/absolutive--whether it be subject of an intransitive or object of a transitive ).

      Same here! I was a bit confused when Martin was the same in both sentences, which I know is the point now, but I wish it was a bit more clearer. I was waiting for an example where Martin is the subject of the transtive one with the -k ending, but it was never given.
