Notes, (1.) This is formed by adding personal affixes to a root ha. 
Halii is for lia Tih§. 
(2.) Haus is sometimes found as the dative of the 3 Pers. affix, 
as ‘ biya akhda haus (or has ’), Another was saying to him. 
(3.) The 3rd Plural is found too with an affix of the 3rd Pers. Sing., 
‘ Manjhe mol ghiddia hais,’ He had bought the buffaloes, 
hais for hai-s. 
(4.) Of these forms those for 2nd Sing., 1st Plur., and 2nd Plur.

‘ Kam harende havi,’ Were you doing the work 
‘ Karende liase,’ We were doing it.
