PronounEdit

Usage notesEdit
The accusative form as has variant forms las and nas. These alternative forms appear depending on the ending of the preceding word. The form las is used when the preceding word ends in -r or -s. The nas form is used when the preceding word ends in -u or a diphthong. These alternative forms are then suffixed to the preceding word.
The accusative also forms contractions when it immediately follows an indirect object pronoun. For example, Dou che as (“I gave you them”) contracts to Dou chas.
