Notes: | |||
*÷: if the root ends in a consonant, remove it. | |||
*¹: if the root ends in a consonant, remove both it and the vowel before it, except in monosyllabic words, in which case the suffix goes after the consonant. | |||
*²: if the root ends with the suffix's first consonant, the suffix is applied in its totality, without removing consonants. | |||
* If there are two forms, the second is used if the root ends in a vowel. | |||
