自从StuartN.自1929年Wolfenden的《藏缅语语言形态学纲要》发表以来，人们不仅越来越关注藏缅语的派生过程，而且也越来越关注词形变化的屈折形态。第一个系统地比较藏缅语动词形态和代词形态的是詹姆斯·约翰·鲍曼（James John Bauman）于1975年发表的《藏缅语代词和代词形态》。鲍曼打消了任何挥之不去的疑虑，即藏缅语的接合可以归因于一个澳亚基底，他列举了大量的数据，证明了藏缅语接合形态的原生性和古老性。藏缅语中的动词一致性传统上被称为霍奇森的“代词化”，基于这样的假设，即接合词缀最终来自古老的独立代词。鲍曼证明了藏缅语的共轭系统，以及它们可能反映的任何古代代词系统，都比在个别语言中证明的独立代词系统更为保守。根据对这些词形变化的比较，鲍曼（Bauman，1975：195，237，247）提出了表1和表2所示的典型藏缅语协议系统。
Since the appearance of Stuart N. Wolfenden's monumental Outlines of Tibeto-Burman linguistic morphology in 1929, attention has increasingly focused not only on derivational processes in Tibeto-Burman, but also on the flexional morphology of conjugations and declensions. The first systematic comparison of Tibeto-Burman conjugational and pronominal morphology was James John Bauman's elaborate Pronouns and pronominal morphology in Tibeto-Burman in 1975. Bauman put to rest any lingering doubts that the conjugations of Tibeto-Burman languages could be attributed to an Austro- Asiatic substrate, and he adduced a vast body of data demonstrating the nativeness and antiquity of conjugational morphology in Tibeto-Burman. Verbal agreement in Tibeto-Burman has traditionally been known by Hodgson's term ‘pronominalization’, based on the assumption that conjugational affixes ultimately derive from ancient independent pronouns. Bauman demonstrated that the conjugational systems of Tibeto-Burman languages, and therefore any ancient pronominal system they may reflect, are more conservative than the independent pronominal systems attested in individual languages. Based on a comparison of these conjugations, Bauman (1975: 195, 237, 247) proposed the prototypical Tibeto-Burman agreement system shown in tables 1 and 2.
