THE ORMURI OR BARGISTA LANGUAGE. 



[§86 



known, (3) the third person singular of the aorist, and (4) its derivation when 

 known. It must be added that some of the derivations given are far frofti certain, 

 but space is not available for me to give my reasons in each case. These will be 

 found in greater detail in the vocabulary, to which reference should be made before 

 rejecting off-hand any particular derivation proposed by me. When Avesta or Old 

 Persian forms are not available for estabhshing a derivation, I have in several places 

 given the corresponding forms of the cognate Sanskrit verbs. It must not therefore 

 be assumed that the Ormuri words are derived directly from the Sanskrit words quoted- 

 In nearly every case they are derived from cognate Eranian forms that, at the time 

 of writing, are unknown to me. 



The verbs are grouped in classes, and are not in alphabetical order.
