The vowelised -h- may either be represented as a glide [j], [w], or it may lengthen the onset of the diphthong. Hence mt għajnejha her eyes may be pronounced /ajˈnɛj.ja/ or /ajˈnɛː.ja/. This latter is much more common, particularly as the former merges with mt għajnejja my eyes. When the suffix is added to a verb in -a that disallows imala, the sequence mt -aha creates a stressed final vowel: mt attakka (“he attacked”, /atˈtak.ka/) → mt attakkaha (“he attacked her”, /at.takˈkaː/). In the monosyllabic verbs mt ra to see and mt ta to give, the suffix vanishes entirely: mt ra and mt raha are both pronounced /raː/. There is, however, a fairly common nonstandard pronunciation that treats mt -aha by analogy with mt -agħha (as in mt jismagħha above). This yields pronunciations such as /at.takˈkaħ.ħa/, /ˈraħ.ħa/. mt personal pronouns Welsh Etymology In some cases, ultimately from cy ine-pro *seh₂g- to seek.201 iii (4) Suffix cy suffix Forms verbs from other parts of speech. cy pysgod fish pysgota to fish cy bwyd food bwyta to eat Derived terms cy Related terms cy -hau References
