Rh The article which qualifies a noun in the dual number will always be in the singular form.

The adjective which qualifies a noun in the dual number will be in the plural form, but really in the dual number; the pronouns belonging to the noun will be in the plural form; and the verb may, but need not be; because in these parts of speech the dual number and the plural number have the same forms.

The initial of an adjective qualifying and agreeing with a noun in the dual number will be aspirated, no matter what the gender or case of the noun may be: as,

The of  is usually aspirated, except after words ending in  (dentals), or after the possessive adjective, her.


 * , her two little feet.
