Consonant-initial root verbs that do not conjugate as adjectives fall into this category. Example: ''sheeni'' "to give".

Roots ending in a semivowel drop it word-finally and before consonant endings. In the verbal noun and stative passive, ''-~~yVn~~-'' and ''-~~wVn~~-'' are often ~~simplified to ''-n-''~~ (lengthening the previous vowel if short).

Roots ending in a semivowel drop it word-finally and before consonant endings. In the verbal noun and stative passive, ''-yV-'' and ''-wV-'' are often dropped (lengthening the previous vowel if short) - e.g. ''casoowiya'' or ''casooya'' "(the act of) becoming red".
