Usage notes
In written Assamese, the spelling of this suffix depends on the ending sound of the verb stem. If it ends with a consonant then no suffix is written, though some may use the vowel marker as ’ o to prevent ambiguity. If the verb stem ends with o, a and u, then as -ৱ suffix is written (eg, as খাৱ kha-o you consume. If the verb stem ends with -i then as -য় suffix is written, (eg, as দিয় di-o you give.
