PREFIXES 



A comparison between this table and the one on p. 740 shows that 



all the prefixes, except an- of the third person plural, are the same 



as those of the intransitive verbs. 



An example of this type of verb is the stem txl- (present txc-) to 



BEAT. In verbs beginning with t^ the prefix t of the first person 



singular is dropped. 



Indicative forms have the theme txli-. 



Subjunctive forms have the theme txli-. 



Present forms have the theme txc}{i)- with auxiliary vowel / 



before terminal n and before glottal stop. 



Indicative : 



txl'i'hm I beat thee 



txli^n he beat thee 



txlih'um,ni' n he beat me 



txli'mink 3^ou beat me, us ; he beat us 



dntxli' cxin they beat you 



ntxlin we beat him 



dntxli'nin they beat him
