Q

Render manûm (III-weak) as a ms nom. Participle and explain its morphology.

A

*mānûm < mānu + um** *

The first vowel is long (macron) and the theme vowel is u. Vowel contraction occurs when the ms nom. case ending is attached.

2
Q

Render malûm (III-weak) as a 1cs Precative and explain its morphology.

A

< l + umla < *imla** *

*lumla *

The form is based on the Preterite. A prefixed l is added to the Preterite form that features a prefixed u-vowel instead of the i-vowel.

3
Q

Render malûm (III-weak) as a 3cs Precative and explain its morphology.

A

limla < *l + imla** *

The form is based on the Preterite. A prefixed l is added to the Preterite form.

4
Q

Render malûm (III-weak) as a cp Imperative and explain its morphology.

A

< *tamlâ < *tamla+ā

milâ < **mlâ *

The form is based on the Preterite. After the prefix drops, an i-vowel is placed between the m-l radicals even though the theme vowel is a.

5
Q

Render banûm (III-weak) as a ms Imperative and explain its morphology.

A

bini < *bni < *tabni

The form is based on the Preterite. The verb’s theme vowel (i) is not followed by a 3rd radical, thus it remains “open.” After the prefix drops, the theme vowel is “copied” between the b-n radicals.

6
Q

Render leqûm (III-weak) as a 1cs Perfect and explain its morphology.

A

elteqe < *altaqe

The verb’s theme vowel (e = Durative) is not followed by a 3rd radical, thus it remains “open,” then the 1cs preformative a and the infixed ta harmonize to elte- (1cs) or telte- (2ms, 2fs, 2cp).

7
Q

Render banûm (III-weak) as a 1cs Perfect and explain its morphology.

A

abtani

The verb’s theme vowel (i = Durative) is not followed by a 3rd radical, thus it remains “open,” then the infixed ta appears between the 1st and 2nd radicals.

8
Q

Render leqûm (III-weak) as a 2fs Durative and explain its morphology.

A

< *talaqqe + ī

teleqqî or talaqqî

The verb’s theme vowel (e) is not followed by a 3rd radical, thus it remains “open,” then the 2fs sufformative ī triggers vowel contraction with the theme vowel, then the 2fs preformative ta and the Durative a-vowel may harmonize to *tele- *(2ms, 2fs, 2cp) or *ele- *(1cs).

9
Q

Render malûm (III-weak) as a 3mp Durative and explain its morphology.

A

imallû < *imalla + ū

The verb’s theme vowel (a) is not followed by a 3rd radical, thus it remains “open,” then the 3mp sufformative ū triggers vowel contraction with the theme vowel.

10
Q

Render leqûm (III-weak) as a 2ms Preterite and explain its morphology.

A

telqe or talqe < *talqe

The verb’s theme vowel (e) is not followed by a 3rd radical, thus it remains “open,” then the 2ms preformative ta may harmonize to te (2ms, 2fs, 2cp) or e (1cs).

11
Q

Render banûm (III-weak) as a 2cp Preterite and explain its morphology.

A

tabniā < *tabni+ā

The verb’s theme vowel (i) is not followed by a 3rd radical, thus it remains “open,” then the 2cp sufformative ā attaches without vowel contraction with the theme vowel.

12
Q

Render banûm (III-weak) as a 2fs Preterite and explain its morphology.

A

tabnî < *tabni+ī

The verb’s theme vowel (i) is not followed by a 3rd radical, thus it remains “open,” then the 2fs sufformative ī triggers vowel contraction with the theme vowel.

13
Q

Render nadānum (I-n) as a fp gen-acc. Participle and explain its morphology.

A

nādinātim

The I-n participle forms are completely regular.

14
Q

Render nadānum (I-n) as a 3fp Precative and explain its morphology.

A

liddinā

The Precative form essentially equates to

l + Preterite.

15
Q

Render nadānum (I-n) as a 2fs Imperative and explain its morphology.

A
  • < ***dinī < ***taddinī*
  • idnī **< *idinī*

The form is based on the Preterite. After the prefix drops, the n-radical remains lost and the theme vowel (i) appears before the 2nd radical d. The theme vowel drops due to vowel syncope.

16
Q

Render nadānum (I-n) as a 2ms Imperative and explain its morphology.

A

idin < *din < *nidin

The form is based on the Preterite. After the prefix drops, the n-radical remains lost and the theme vowel (i) appears before the 2nd radical d.

17
Q

Render nadānum (I-n) as a 3fp Perfect and explain its morphology.

A
  • ittadin + ī < *
  • ittadnī*

The 1st radical n assimilates to the infixed ta between the 1st and 2nd radicals, thereby doubling the t of the ta. Theme vowel = Durative.

18
Q

Render nadānum (I-n) as a 1cp Durative and explain its morphology.

A

ninaddin
