  Then in that case i'll keep it the same, because it is the person of the first and second person compared to the object that moves. The object remains stationary.

  Ok, i'll keep that in mind. chol would then be for the first or second person objects, while Sum would be for the 3rd person (in this case since it's primarily a stationary object.)
