STEUCTURE OF THE VERB. 



The simplest form or base of every verb is with one or two exceptions 

 identical in form with the. 2nd pers. sing, imperative. Prom this base are 

 formed immediately, by the addition of certain terminations, the imperative, 

 aorist, infinitive and present participle. The termination of the infinitive is 

 z.gh. Prom the base so obtained two more tenses, the present and imper- 

 fect, are formed. The past participle is formed from the base in a manner 

 which will be described hereafter, and other past participles are formed from 

 it as a base. 



(«). Forms derived immediately from the base. 



The imperative, as observed above, generally is the simplest form of the 

 base. Verbs beginning with vowels take the prefix ba or bi, and the verbs 

 wararj'/* " to eat" and rava^'/i " to go" also form their imperatives bawar and 

 bare. Verbs beginning with vowels take also the prefix bi or kh in the 

 aorist. These prefixes are not used either in the imperative or aorist when 

 a negative is expressed, the negative particles na, ni and ma taking their 

 place ; e. g., 



riyar bring 

 mayar do not bring 



bilaw I will let 



nelara I will not let 



khai^/i he will come 



nayai^A he will not come
