Passive verbs derived from lexically causative verbs with the passive affix ''-(a)m-''. When derived from a Conjugation 3 verb, the ''-sh-'' becomes a ''-s-'', giving the combined affix ''-(i)s(a)m-'' Note that in dropping environments, either the ''-i-'' or ''-a-'' of ''-(i)s(a)m-'' may be dropped - e.g. ''karisma'' or ''karsama'' "it cooks" (the latter is more common). -''(a)m''- can also combine with ''-at-'' (though more rarely) to form ''-am-'', where the -''a''- is NOT dropped. There are two competing paradigms for Conjugation 2 verbs: the first treats them as a Conjugation 1 verb, with the ''-(a)m'' affix behaving as a part of the stem, while the second is a hybrid of Conjugations 1 and 4. The hybrid paradigm cannot be used when the ''-a-'' of ''-(a)m-'' is preserved in a combined affix such as ''-am-'' or ''-sam-''. | Passive verbs derived from lexically causative verbs with the passive affix ''-(a)m-''.
