(12) In certain NENA dialects the brand new preterite away from Classification II verbs possess an effective vocalism (m)CoCiC- otherwise (m)CuCiC- with no forerunner in the last dialects. Noldeke (1868, 213) suggested that progressive function is actually associated with brand new Hebrew pual. Examples: Aradhin mbusille ‘he cooked’ (Krotkoff 1982, 136), Tkhuma mso:re:li ‘I began’, Jilu +poltele ‘he took they out’ (Fox 1992, 54). Variations which have o or you is actually absent outside NENA and also have in many of your NENA dialects: Hertevin, Sanandaj Christian, and you will Halabja: Halabja bqirraxun ‘you (pl.) asked’, Hertevin bqerre ‘he asked’ (Jastrow 1988, 206).
(13) The general introduce is marked by good prefix in most NENA except Hertevin plus in Mandaic and in Turoyo. The prefix takes certainly one of about three models: (a) k- towards all of the verbs (complex so you can c- in Urmi, expanded so you can ko- before consonants in the Turoyo, and also in Zakho getting g- before a voiced phoneme); (b) k- but only on a limited family of verbs (with some voicing absorption and frequently most other alter too); otherwise (c) i- into the the verbs.
