1974, Bulletin of the Deccan College Research Institute, volume 34, page 35:
In H. singular Ist person form is different from the rest and in plural the IInd person form is different from the rest of the forms.
Plural suffixes may be optionally added after the Ist person exclusive ƞə—z̆e, Ist person inclusive ƞə—təƞ, and IInd person non-honorific khyo—z̆e and honorific ñe—z̆e.
