Some of them are due to overgeneration: forms like "I+me", "you+you" don't exist, you should use reflexive instead, which takes 3rd person object agreement and a special pronoun and all that stuff. So *didagu* is wrong in the sense that it doesn't exist, but there is no other form that would be more correct. For that reason, I decided to keep these forms and not replace them with an empty string or `nonExist`. If an application grammarian needs to say "I see myself", they can just use `ReflVP` in `VerbEus`. -Some of the non-existing forms are genuine mistakes, like *zatzaie*, which should be *zatza__zki__e* instead.
