Usage notes
- When someone has accidentally dropped something by losing his or her grip on it, it is more common to use ܢܵܦܹܠ ܡ̣ܢ (nāpēl min, literally “to fall from”) rather than ܡܲܦܸܠ (mappil). In that case, the subject denotes the dropped item, and is usually postponed:
- ܩܲܢܝܵܐ ܢܦܝܼܠ ܠܹܗ ܡܸܢܝܼ. ― qanyā npīl lēh minnī. ― I (accidentally) dropped the pen. (literally, “The pen fell from me.”)
