(Early New Persian) Exact usage of this combining ligature along with ؾ and ؿ varies according to different manuscripts, authors, and scribes. In general, they are used to differentiate various forms of the very common Persian suffix written with final yeh ـی, which is most commonly pronounced [i:]. The modern suffix derives from several suffixes, such as the Middle Persian 𐭩𐭪𐭠 (ykʾ /-īg/) / Middle Persian 𐭩𐭪𐭩 (yky /-īg/) and the Arabic ـِيّ (-iyy). In Early Persian or the dialects of the authors or scribes, the difference between the suffixes may have been phonemic (In some dialects of Afghan Persian two different [i:] sounds still exist, though they are not differentiated orthographically). Other writers have used this superscript or, ؾ and ؿ to indicate certain grammatical or, stress differences. The ؾ and ؿ only appear at the end of words and are attested only in their final and isolated forms.
