It is to be noted that in many sabstantives and some verbs
pa is used after any consonant. This is specially when it implies the sense of belonging to', or 'of'; e.g. 3541 lun.pa upatyakā 'a valley.'; 119941 mthaḥ.pa, anta- (or pratyanta-)vāsin 'one dwelling on the boundary of a country.' ; 295.00 śar.pa, pracya 'one of the east'; gall yul.pa, jānapada'a country man’; 75991 bod.pa, Bhoțiya 'one belonging to the country of Bod or Bhoța, 'a Tibetan' ; 95 41 gyur.pa, bhūta “became', 'actually happened.
These affixes are, however, not essential in all cases, for many substatives, verbs, or adjectives are found without them.
These particles as well as Š po and Ābo (see below note 7,) sometimes indicate the masculine gender, while ma and K mo the feminine gender ; e. g. FraŽE "91 rnal.ḥbyor.pa, yogin ‘one who practises yoga', fem. FARŠEH mal.ḥbyor. ma; J'Ñ rgyal.po, rājan ‘king' and sharif rgyal. mo, rājñi 'queen'
