The sequential Pronoun is noticed in Nkwen Language when a person carries out a series of activities in a sequence or serially. For Example
Ləm à ghə ŋkha ədzͻ̀, mbû nsû, nti’i nniŋə a məme àkaŋə ŋkwusə. (Lem went and harvested plums, came back, prepared it, put it in a dish and covered.)
The sequential markers m, n and ŋ, as illustrated above refer to the same person “Ləm”. Without these markers the sentence cannot be coherent. Thus there is a degree of cohesion between these markers and the person for several verbs in a sequence.
