 +If the subject is expressed by two nouns or pronouns joined by conjunction "and" = "agh", then verb takes plural form. Example: "Shagrat __and__ Gorbag __were__ talking in the tower" => "Shagrat __agh__ Gorbag shugbuz__û__ lugumor", "You __and__ I __are__ made for each other" => "Fi __agh__ da krampâkuz__û__ ûghûr iskûr". Similarly, predicate becomes plural when subject is expressed by two nouns or pronouns, if one is in nominative case and the other is in [[case_comitative|comitative case]]: "Shagrat with Gorbag captured Frodo" => "Shagrat Gorbagsha dikuzû Frodo".
