When combined with a verb, to denote that something is done for somebody or something, it is also used inside the verb, where it's a combination of the (possesive) personal prefix plus з(ы), which is a prefix to the verb root.
In intransitive verbs the subject of the verb stands before з(ы) (and personal prefix), where as in a transitive verb the subject stands after the affix and the object before it. For example: intransitive сузнацеит (suznacejtʼ, “I went there for you”), and transitive иузызгеит (iuzəzgejtʼ, “I took it for you”).
When an action is done to do another action (verb), the suffix (а)зы is used after the verb (see below).
After a vowel, suffix -зы (-zə) can be used:
- Авиациабзиабаҩцәа аҳаирпланқәа ирбаразы Аҟәа аеропорт ахь ицеит.
- Avjacjabzjabajʷcʷa aḥajrpʼlankʷa irbarazə Aqʷʼa ajeropʼortʼ axʲ icejtʼ.
- Aviation-enthusiasts went to Sukhumi airport to see aircraft.
