Gzarot (Hebrew, sg. gizra; Netagin kafiŋâ, pl. kăfiŋ) are variations of an inflectional (especially verbal) paradigm that are determined by the choice of consonants in the consonantal root. Thus, a paradigm may have a regular gizra in addition to various irregular ones, which occur most commonly when
- the consonantal root contains a "guttural" (ʔ ȝ h ħ) or a semivowel (y w);
- the consonantal root contains a r, since rC tends to assimilate into CC
- the consonantal root has 2 letters.
