The paradigms of the other conjugations 

 may be easily formed from this example. 



There are two neuter or substantive verbs, 

 ka or ka, which makes in the infinitive 

 kdkiliko, and ba or bv, which makes bdliko 

 (or bdliko). The first has a passive signi- 

 fication, as simply to exist or be in any 

 state; the other is active, meaning to be 

 in the act of doing any thing; as, tfti-ka, 

 to be dead ; tfti-ba, to be dying, or to die. 

 The latter, however, seems to be more 

 rarely used than the former. 



The following is the paradigm of the 

 verb ka, to be, of the second conjugation. 

 (The a in this word has an obscure sound, 

 approaching to u, which is sometimes sub- 

 stituted for it.)

There is properly but one substantive 

 verb, though several other words, particu- 

 larly bala and wari, are often used in place 

 of one, but they are indeclinable. 



The following is the paradigm 'given by 

 Mr. Watson of the verb yiyinya, to be 

 (of the fourth conjugation).
