Editor's Note
Although not orthographically affixed to the verb, it is joined to it phonologically in a single prosodic unit, enabling the realization of the final long vowel. If used with ش (-š) in bipartite negation, the allomorphic form مـ (ma-) is used. See the Documentation for further information.
