b) Conjunct verbs with हो /ɦo/ 'become'
The other way of forming conjunct verbs is with हो /ɦo/ 'become'. It is a
tadbhava from Sanskrit भव /b ̤ ʌwʌ/ 'be' or 'become' and so it is still भइल /b ̤ ʌil/ in
infinitives and perfectives too. Besides, it is used as होख /ɦokʰ/ alternatively. But it
differs from कर /kʌr/ 'do' conjuncts because all of हो /ɦo/ 'become' conjuncts are
intransitive and bound to have fewer potential arguments, Followings are some
examples in (35a-c).
