Description Parts of human body, existing in pairs, performing the function of dual "possesum" with more than one representative as a "possesor" can be expressed either by distributive dual, or by summative plural. Therefore, not only dual, but also plural can be considered a normative means of expression (ne umyvająt7 rąku svojeju//rąk7 svoich7) in the oldest OCS texts.
