When it occurs at the end of Arabic words it is generally written with two points over it, thus ة , and is pronounced as t . When used for a number it denetes five; and in words ending with hā-i-z̤āhir , it is sometimes lost or suffers apocope in the plural, as مرغه mur-g̠ẖah , A bird; مرغان mur-g̠ẖān , Birds; and at times retained as آه āh , A sigh; آهونه āhūnah , Sighs.[classical]
