From Lua error in Module:utilities at line 142: attempt to perform arithmetic on local 'h' (a nil value), from Proto-Malayic *ña, from Proto-Malayo-Chamic *ña, from Proto-Malayo-Sumbawan *ña, from Proto-Malayo-Polynesian *ni-a, from Proto-Austronesian *ni-a (compare Tagalog niya (“third person pronoun clitic”), Javanese -ne (“third person pronoun clitic”)).[1]

-nya

1. (dative) to him, to her, to it
2. (objective after preposition) him, her, it
3. (accusative) him, her, it
4. his, her, its (attributive: belonging to him / her / it)

   Ini rumahnya. ― This is his / her / its house.

The usage of this suffix is very diverse, but not all words could take -nya for some senses.

• -nya as a third-person singular possessive (possession): Budi mengambil uangnya di bank. means uang is owned by Budi.
• -nya as a third-person singular objective: Budi menemaninya ke bank. (active), or Ani ditemaninya ke bank. (passive). -nya works as a replacement of Ani in the former and Budi in the latter sentence.
• -nya as a definite marker: Budi, uangnya di mana?. The definite marker means that the money in question is a specific money, not just any money. Similar to the definite article the in "Budi, where is the money?"
• -nya as a possessed case: Ini uangnya Budi, bukan uangnya Ani., Uangnya Budi di mana? considered redundant but often acceptable in standard grammar, common in casual speech. Compare his genitive in early Modern English.
• -nya as a verb nominalizer: Kamu makannya jangan begitu. The -nya here changes the verb makan into a noun.

• “-nya” in Kamus Besar Bahasa Indonesia, Jakarta: Language Development and Fostering Agency — Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology of the Republic Indonesia, 2016.
