Hi Abkhazian learners! 😊
In this lesson, we will be discussing how to use the verb "have" in Abkhazian. The verb "have" can be a little tricky in any language, but we will break it down and simplify it for you. Let's get started!
The Basics
In Abkhazian, we use the verb "ҳазақь" (hazaaq') to express possession, which is the equivalent of "have" in English. The verb "hazaaq'" changes to reflect the person and tense of the sentence. Here is an overview of how the verb changes:
| Person | Suffix |
|---|---|
| I | -аа -aa |
| You (singular) | -ыҧ -əp |
| He/She/It | -на -nə |
| We | -ҵаа -čaa |
| You (plural) | -ҵыҧ -čəp |
| They | -ҵара -čara |
Let's take a look at some examples to better understand how to use the verb "hazaaq'" in different sentences.
Examples

- Person 1: "Аҟәа ақәаҩ дзы ҳазаа." (Aqʷa aqʷa-pš dy hazaa.) - "I have a red car."
- Person 2: "Ҳыҟәарагьы ақәаҩ эстыҳьа." (Hykʷaragy aqʷa-pš estyhhə.) - "Your red car is beautiful."
In this conversation, we see that the verb "hazaaq'" changes to -аа (-aa) to reflect the first person singular. The verb "hazaaq'" also agrees with the noun "ақәаҩ" (aqʷa-pš) which means car.
Example 2

In this conversation, we see that the verb "hazaaq'" changes to -аа (-aa) to reflect the first person singular, and the suffix for the past tense "-ым" (-əm) is added to the verb to reflect past tense.
Example 3
In this dialogue, we will see how to use the verb "hazaaq'" with pronouns in a sentence.
- Person 1: "Аҳәырҭәаҵқәа аҟәарақәа дзы ҳазақьны ҳьыцәа?" (Ahəyrtʼaachqʷa aqʷa-raqʷa dy hazaaqʼny ḥytswa?) - "Do you have your passport?"
