Usage notes
This word has no singular (hypothetically *maihadhūs), and is only used in its dual (maihadhūyon) and plural (maihadhaus) forms. In order to refer to a single parent, either meinā (mother) or bunā (father) are used, or, more formally, the construction maihadūbhan leila (one of the parents — maihadūbhan being the syncretic exessive/ablative dual form).
