| The ''-ness-'' | | The ''-nes-'', ''-ness-'', and ''-ness(V)-'' forms are preferred in Modern Standard Minhast, most Upper Minhast dialects, and the Gull Speaker dialect. These are the only forms found in Classical Minhast. ''-nes-'' is used when immediately followed by a consonant, ''-ness-'' when followed by a vowel, and '' -ness(V)-'' when followed by a consonant cluster; the epenthentic vowel in the ''-ness(V)-'' form usually echoes the vowel of the next syllable, e.g. ''kallutek-ness'''<u>a</u>'''-mp<u>'''a</u>'''māš iknatumanek-ness-aš'' "I will eat something and then return home." | ||
