-Peshpeg verbs consist of an inflected auxiliary usually followed by a verbal noun, although the verbal noun may precede the auxiliary.  The auxiliary developed from the fusion of a bound pronominal marker to the connective particle ''mon'', ultimately derived from the Minhast connective ''min''.  This complex in turn is attached to the locative suffix ''-bi''<sup>1</sup>, plus a tense-aspect marker.  The verbal noun follows this auxiliary and contains the semantic content of the verb phrase.
