Grammar
Like Bunun, Seediq, Squliq Atayal, Mantauran Rukai, and the Tsouic languages, Pazeh does not distinguish between common nouns and personal names, while Saisiyat does (Li 2000). Although closely related to Saisiyat, the Pazeh language does not have the infix -um-, which is present in Saisiyat.
