By adding tc the infinitive s , we form the negative verbal participle ; by adding to it $, we form the negative relative participle ; and by adding to it S5o, we form the negative verbal noun ; thus, from "~k> to beat come %~^ without beating or having beaten ; "~<^<0 that eo *-3 eo doe s not, has not, or will not beat ; and S~to*K> the not beating.
Neuter and active verbs are conjugated in the same manner : we shall, 337 therefore,treat of them conjointly ; merely distinguishing the iS^fc 3$w from the ee^3&S&o verbs : we shall afterwards submit an example of the passive verb, and shall conclude this chapter with a few remarks on the causal verb.
OF "3#3Sw VERBS.
Roots in &> or d&o undergo certain changes to which other verbs are not 338 liable : we shall, therefore, divide the verbs in to three conjugations ; the first, including all verbs the root of which terminates in 'any other syllable than <3&> or -i& ; the second, all those that have the root in cCco ; and the third, all those of which the root terminates in *&> ; and, in giving an example of each conjugation, we shall place first the correct grammatical form, the common forms following in order, as they more or less approach to it.
FIRST CONJUGATION.
All the roots ( that terminate in any other syllable than ctfw or -^ belong 339 to this conjugation ; and merely require the addition of the different termina- tions mentioned in the foregoing table.
The root ^ to beat, is selected as an example of this conjugation. 340 Hoot..,.. ....... ,...^ r ^^ common. , common.
