====Borrowed verbs==== | |||
Verbs borrowed from non-Semitic languages usually follow the suffixed conjugation. | |||
Verbs borrowed from Arabic generally keep their Arabic stems. However, causative verbs (i.e. those with the form أفعل) keep their initial glottal stop in the imperfect stem and therefore conjugate identically to quadriliteral verbs. | |||
Verbs borrowed from Semitic languages besides Arabic are usually early borrowings that have been fully nativized. This means that they decline identically to native Zanahi verbs. | |||
