=====Non-finite forms===== | =====Non-finite forms===== | ||
The non-finite forms are participles and two infinitives. | |||
The participle is formed by infixing ⟨''an''⟩ before the onset of the second syllable of the stem. Assimilation of the ''n'' in place of articulation occurs if the following consonant is a stop or a nasal, and becomes ''ļ'' before ''ļ''. | |||
The first infinitive is formed by suffixing ''-s'' to the 2nd person masculine singular imperative. | |||
====Conjugation of the mediopassive==== | ====Conjugation of the mediopassive==== | ||
The mediopassive marks the subject as a patient of the verb. Apart from passivity, mediopassives may have a derivational function; they may indicate reflexive action or change of state. As such there are quite a few deponent verbs, verbs that are inherently mediopassive, and also mediopassive counterparts of active intransitive verbs. | The mediopassive marks the subject as a patient of the verb.
