How to resolve ambiguity
The distinction between بۇ ('bu') the pronoun and 'bu' the determiner is defined by whether a noun phrase follows it. We remove the determiner analysis when bu is not followed by a noun phrase. However, since Ugyhur is in SOV order, it is possible that 'bu' as a pronoun subject is followed by a noun phrase. We can select the pronoun 'bu' when it is followed by a noun phrase which is itself followed by a verb phrase. Commonly, this is "'bu' noun verb" or 'bu' adj noun verb.
