Usage notes edit
- gmiasst is the common perfect participle in West Central Bavaria and Southern Bavaria and miassn in East Central Bavaria.
- Miassn can express the necessity of doing something, but also the moral duty. Soin expresses moral duty or the suggestion that something ought to be done. Both verbs can express a duty imposed by someone else. In this case miassn is stronger than soin, implying that the imposing person has some kind of power to make the other really do it.
