Specifically (al--) (english: hum), ـنِي is attached to verbs (-nī) (english: me), but ـِي (-ī), ـيَ is attached to nouns. In the latter case (-ya) (english: my), ـيَ is attached to nouns whose construct state ends in a long vowel (-ya), diphthong (english: e.g. in the sound masculine plural and the dual), while ـِي is attached to nouns whose construct state ends in a short vowel (-ī), in which case that vowel is elided. Furthermore (english: as well as the singular and broken plural of most nouns), -ū of the masculine sound plural is assimilated to -ī before ـيَ. Prepositions use ـِي (-ī) (english: presumably, -aw of masculine defective -an plurals is similarly assimilated to -ay), ـيَ (-ya), even though in this case it has the meaning of rather than . The sisters of inna can use either form. 3. ـهِـ occurs after -i (-hi-) (alt: e.g. إِنَّنِي (ʔinnanī) or إِنِّي (ʔinnī)) (english: me; my), -ī, or -ay, and ـهُـ elsewhere (after -a, -ā, -u, -ū, -aw)
