(2) It is doubtful whether ‑er occurs contracted; the 3rd sg. impv. in ‑ed is mostly uncontracted.

(3) The contracted forms ‑ṓi, ‑ā́i of the 3rd sg. impf. are often pronounced and written ‑oe, ‑ae, see § 52 iii (3).

(4) The aor. stem ‑oes- is generally misspelt ‑ois- in Recent W.; thus troesom Es. liii 6, paratoesant 1 Bren. xviii 26 (so in 1620) appear as troisom and parottoisant! in recent bibles.

(5) On the 3rd sg. pres. para, pery see § 173 v (1).

ii. Stems ending in -diphthongs have contracted forms when the endings ‑wn or ‑wch follow; thus táwn for táw-wn ‘let us be silent’, téwch for téw-wch ‘be ye silent’; gw̯randéwch for gw̯randéw-wch ‘listen ye’; clýwn for clýw-wn ‘we hear’, clýwch (re-formed clɥ́wch) for clýw-wch ‘ye hear’ or ‘hear ye’.

iii. Other vowels and diphthongs are not contracted; e.g. gweddī́-ir ‘there will be prayer’, cáe-ent (cáy-ent) ‘let them shut’, béi-id ‘fault was found’, dilḗ-er ‘may be deleted’, cynorthẃy-ynt ‘they assisted’. But for ‑ā́-odd in the 3rd sg. aor.
