* Fortition by past tense marker ''-hai''. The Širkattarnaft character <gu> signifies fortition of the first consonant of the next word. The character <wa> in ''ku-wa-r-zi'' signifies that <ku> should be pronounced /ko/. The litigants' representation of /o/ alternates wildly, so other possible renditions are ''ku-<span style="font-weight:bold;text-decoration:underline">'u-wa</span>-r-zi'', ''k<span style="font-weight:bold;text-decoration:underline">a-wa-'u</span>-r-zi'', or adding the character <'a> to the preceding word followed by <ku>, e.g. ''gu-<span style="font-weight:bold;text-decoration:underline">'a</span> ku-wa-r-zi'' | * Fortition by past tense marker ''-hai''.
