hi, i am an israeli mathematician working in brazil. as a new member of this list i have followed with interest your most recent discussions. i am mostly interested in ancient linguistics, confessedly as an amateur (or "internet scholar").
* re: ken: YULAD * Pere correctly pointed out that the tense is PUAL. however, we are dealing with irregular verbs of different kinds. as an irregular verb starting with YOD, YLD has to be declined with other words like YRSH, YSHB, YD), or YBSH. the PUAL form for these verbs is not at all irregular and follows the general pattern, granted that YOD is the first root letter: * the PUAL-past form is YuLaD, YuSHaV, YuBaSH, YuDa). * the future form is ye-YuLaD, ye-YuSHaV, ye-YuBaSH, ye-YuDa). (i believe YRSH has no PUAL form). --------------------------------- * re: pere: YULAD * The examples given by pere are of a different irregular nature: NTN and KYM and follow different declensions. NTN loses one or two NUNs in some declensions (ten, latet, natati, yutan). in fact, HUKAM/YUKAM is in the HIFIL form. KYM (exists) declension is mixed up with the very ancient 2-letter root KM (stands) in a way i find more confusing the more i think of it. maybe someone in the group could elucidate on this. nir cohen -- Open WebMail Project (http://openwebmail.org) On Wed, 08 Dec 2010 13:20:27 -0500, b-hebrew-request wrote > Send b-hebrew mailing list submissions to > [email protected] > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://lists.ibiblio.org/mailman/listinfo/b-hebrew > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > [email protected] > > You can reach the person managing the list at > [email protected] > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of b-hebrew digest..." -- Open WebMail Project (http://openwebmail.org) _______________________________________________ b-hebrew mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ibiblio.org/mailman/listinfo/b-hebrew
