"By a wholly barbarous combination finding no
warrant in the earlier and more genuine usages
of the [Sanskrit] language, the suffixes of
comparison in their adverbial feminine form,
-taraam and -tamaam, are later allowed to
be added to personal forms of verbs: thus,
[...] *siidatetaraam*, /is more despondent/..."

 - Whitney, Sanskrit grammar

For the sake of clarity, let's pretend that
/-ger/ is the comparative suffix in "bigger",
or /-ler/ in "fuller".
Then for instance "creates-ger" or "creates-ler"
would be, in the meaning 'creates more', somewhat analogous
to /siidate-taraam/ above!
