-ईजिये

Compare the more common hi -इये, where the medial -y- was possibly borrowed or reinserted at some point. The latter has influenced this verb, extending the ending to -iye.42 Pronunciation Suffix suf suffix for present third-person singular or plural imperative of some verbs; the imperative marker for hi आप, the most respectful imperative marker, for a handful of common verbs (hi कीजिये, hi दीजिये, etc) Alternative forms hi -ईजिए References
