the son of a paternal aunt. 
Similarly for the other wives, masat a r bay 1 kale an; 
mamat a r bay 1 kdkan, and pit a r bay 1

byanath a r, sister’s son bene a sister).

The following Suffixes form adjectives Of possession. 
6. al, fern. al. This Suffix is restricted to natural posses¬ 
sions, i.e., when a thing or quality is spoken of as not only accom¬ 
panying an object, hut as actually forming part of it (iv. 15-19), cf. 
No. 9. When added to verbal nouns, they must be in the feminine 
form, see p. 210. 
As usual, the noun to which the suffix is added takes the form of 
the instrumental singular, but before a, X i becomes y, and m a, 
for ^5T an, is dropped.
