The attached personal pronouns (PP) are not (NOT!) the separate ones. All we have to know about the attached PP is:

1. That they are PP.
2. What or who is referred.

He who knows Hebrew knows that the U in XAN-U is for the parkers.
He who knows Hebrew knows that XAN-U-T is a store and that XAN-IY-T is a spear.
He who knows Hebrew knows that K-O-S is a cup, that K-IY-S is a pocket, and that K-U-S is another cup-shaped thing (into colloquial Hebrew from Arabic).

Same queston about XANU, they encamped: why not "he encamped"?
