Classes 5 and 6 have a small subclass of verbs that use the consonant suffix -j- in the general form, but drop it elsewhere


The reduplicated consonant prefix in class 7 verbs was lost. As a result, class 7a strong verbs were lost, becoming weak verbs or, if they had past stem vowel ''u'', becoming 7b instead.
