|
| |
|

| | |
| The name ''Azalic'' is a Persian cognate of Əngoil /ˈəngojl/, the legendary mother of the Azalic people (cognate of Ahalyā in Hindu mythology).

| ===Adjectives===
| |
| Adjectives were uninflected, because they were split off from adjective-noun compounds.
| |
| ===Pronouns===
| |
| The conjunctive pronouns were used as pronominal subjects in unmarked sentences. The disjunctive pronouns were used as objects and as emphasis in sentences such as ''It est mé'' "It's me".

| Verb tenses were relatively complex, but the original PIE personal affixes were lost.
| |
| | |
| When the subject was nominal singular, "he", "she" or "it", the suffix ''-se'' (from PIE *swe) was required for verbal agreement. The 2sg and 3sg distal pronouns are number neutral so they didn't take ''-se''.
| |
| | |
| The different forms were:
| |
| *Imperative (source of English imperative and subjunctive): non-past without any endings
| |
| *Nonpast (the source of the English present): e-grade or otherwise the unmarked form of the verb
| |
| *Past: PIE reduplicated perfect or root aorist
| |
| *Irrealis (source of the English subjunctive ''were''): sigmatic future.
| |
| *Stative (the source of the English past): a tenseless form like the Akkadian stative. Originally a deverbal noun; formed with the o-grade (deriving nouns in PIE) for strongs, -d from -tús for weaks, (i)-ə from -ih2 for semistrongs. It was not a true finite verb form so it didn't take ''-se''.
| |
| **Modal verbs such as ''can, will, shall, may, must, ought'' are stative-present verbs.
| |
| *Active participle: -ənt
| |
| **''-ənt-qhe'' became the present progressive ''-ing'' in English.
| |
| *Passive participle (source of English past participle): zero-grade with -n from -nós, or -d from -tós
| |
| | |
| Proto-Azalic had at least three distinct verb paradigms:
| |
| *The weak verbs became the English weaks
| |
| *The strong verbs became the non-class 7 strongs in English (e.g. ''bind'')
| |
| *The semistrong verbs became the class 7 strongs such as ''fall, hold, grow, know''
