These two words can even be used in the fem. plur. Thus, 
1 O 9 
he quarrelled (many times) ; moravyan, he suffered pains. 
The following verbs (repeated from pp. 16 and 22) are also imper¬ 
sonal but have this peculiarity that they are conjugated with suffixes of 
the dative instead of suffixes of the agent, and are also in the feminine. 
tsar , be inwardly wrathful. 
phop, ditto. 
phuh , ditto. 
marts , ditto. 
wuts, be burnt. 
pints , forget. 
tyamb , look eagerly (conjugated in the third conjugation). 
Thus, tsar^-s, not ’rW*T £sar®-w, there was inward anger to him, 
he was angry. 
•fhpr isar^-y, not tsar^-th, thou wast angry. 
tsar^-m, I was angry. 
So wuts^y, thou wast burnt. These verbs are given here, 
because the first six are used in the Past Tense. tyamb , look 
eagerly, belongs to the third conjugation, and does not use the Past 
Tense. 
This impersonal construction, whether with the Dative or with 
the Agent, is called in Sanskrit, the bhcive-praydga. 
Neuter Verbs. 
Neuter verbs of the second conjugation, having their Past Participle 
neuter, are conjugated, in the Past tenses actively. They thus take the 
pronominal suffixes of the nominative, and agree with the subject of the 
sentence in number and person. The addition of the pronominal suffixes 
is obligatory. 
They are here quoted for ready reference.

There are no nominative suffixes of the first person plural or of the 
third person.
