Present stems ending in a long vowel add ـیـ (-y-) before this suffix, for example the present stem of the verb پالودن (pâludan) being پالا (pâlâ), the resulting noun is پالایش (pâlâyeš, refinement).

    The ending ‑št is rare in early new Persian: it is found in some early Judaeo-Persian texts from Xuzestān and occasionally elsewhere, as is the case of bad‑kuništ, alternating with bad‑kuniš, in the Šāhnāme. Poems written in Širāzi a few centuries later than QQ contain further instances, e.g. ravešt ‘way’, konešt ‘action’, gerevešt ‘belief’. Though mostly limited to a more or less small group of words also recorded in current Persian dictionaries (e.g. gardešt ‘walk’, bālešt ‘cushion’), the diffusion of št-deverbatives (or nominal derivatives) is much larger than generally admitted. Today we find a few in usage in Tehrāni and in Modern Spoken Persian, but they are more consistently documented in the eastern areas of the Iranian plateau: e.g. in Sistān, particularly in the dialect of Saraxs (...), in Xorasāni (...), in Tajik dialects (...), and in Kāboli, from where ‑št stably entered the Pašto morphological system. As for dialects spoken in South Iran, dictionaries record sporadic št-words. (...) Middle Persian (and some Early Judaeo-Persian) deverbatives ended in ‑išn. No one doubts that, from a morphological point of view, -išn/‑iš/‑išt should not be separated. Moreover, scholars generally agree on the fact that ‑t in ‑št is “a secondary addition, after the ‑n had been dropped” and that št-forms are sideforms to š-forms.
