t-words

Words of the form tV and t(diphthong) are all 'the'-type words of one sort or another: 

ta - indefinite article
to - definite article
te - noun marker
ti - proper noun marker
taw - (
toy - "

So we need one more, for 'a certain' and I think the candidate is 'tu'.

gataympa, do tu dey, tu pisa pweri pawdja hu dan bawmgu....

I'm not certain about the logic of it, but it feels right.
