The verb ''oran'' belongs to a special class of the contracted verbs: the '''a-verbs'''. These verbs show an '''a''' in some endings and, above all, in the infinitive instead of the classic '''y'''. These are the only irregular verbs with a predictable pattern, as we can see with other examples, such as the verbs '''dogan''', "to wait", and '''tivan''', "to honour": | |||
