Here are a couple of sentences, illustarting different aspects of the concept of 'having something'.

The first should be pretty straightforward. This uses the dative case as has been discussed here recently:

ayswizaw lu oeru

The second tries to get away from the kind of odd construction of the last sentence, as well as direct possession:

Ayswizaw ro tìfitsenge lu sasyr

I am almost certain something is wrong with the second sentence. Perhaps it should be ro fitsenge Fitsenge is kind of a odd word to be an adverb, at least to me. It seems to act more like a noun.

Yawey ngahu!

first one=legit. you can say Lu oer if you want. typical at the end of a sentence.

second one...hmmm

there are arrows here to use= arrows are here so that you may use them:

tok fìtsenget ayswizawìl fte fkol sivar sa'ut

tok fìtsenget ayswizaw fte ngal sivar sa'ut

Should probably be fko in the second one not nga. Also ayswizawìl

And in copula+dative sentences the verb almost always comes first, whether arrows go last or first after the verb depends on what you want to emphasise.
