Comments: Av. paradigm B (ʕošṭó-l, ʕašṭá-l, Chad.ʕoždó-l, ʕaždá-l). The word contains a dental suffix (because of a specific cluster development it is hard to reconstruct it precisely); the only suffixless form is recorded by Khaidakov in an And. dialect (anǯi). Cf. also Akhv. Tseg., Tlan. ʕanžir, Kar. Tok. ʕanžit.
