§§ 25-28. Verbal Stems 



§ 25. introductory 



Verbal stems may be divided in two main groups ; those in -a with accent on the first syllable 

 when appearing without prefix; and those with varying vocalic ending, monosyllabic or bisyl- 

 labic generally with accent on the second syllable. 



The former have the type cvc (consonant, vowel, consonant) or ccvc, rarely vc, all followed 

 by the suffix a. Only single, medial stops (p, t, c, k), or single voiced spirants (z, z, g) appear at 

 the close of stems of this class 236 . When reduplicated the whole stem vc, cvc or ccvc is repeated 

 with the phonetic changes required in forms losing their terminal vowel, or in consonantic clusters 

 originating through contact of terminal and initial consonants. For short the whole class will 

 be designated as cvc. 



336 A few verbs ending in ya or wa do not belong to this class.
