For dialects
where ุฝิเ poodu is not just a variant of ยีเ (v)idu `completive', we place it here among the primarily attitudinal aspect
markers. Note that phonologically, ุฝิฅเ poottu the AVP
form, is often reduced to ไฅเ puttu or คเ ptu as in ยีฅเคเ vittuptu `having definitely
(mischievously) left' and ถิคฝีฅเคไฅเ saappittuptu
`having eaten'.
