خَطَايَايَ my sins

A plural noun with an attached '-my' on its end, the second party of the 'between' relationship, and so in the genitive that the preposition governs. The suffix supplies the owner, and the broken plural, formed by reshaping the word's inner vowels, names the sins the speaker asks to be distanced from.
