|
The demonstratives naha, baha, naura, bukra and the interrogative determiners ani and dia precede the noun they determine and require the ligature (see below). |
|
The indefinite article and most quantifiers follow the noun and do not require a ligature. |
|
The general article ba and the proximal article na stand at the end of the noun phrase and require no ligature. The proximal article expresses proximity. |
|
Optionally the article may be combined with other determiners or quantifiers, and with the ligature (which seems to convey a greater degree of definiteness). |
|
The article is even used sometimes with pronouns, although not required. |
