Old !Zoom verbs are inspired by Old Irish verbs; they display independent vs. dependent allomorphy. | |||
An unprefixed verb (present tense): | |||
(these are independent forms,used in unmarked clauses. In Primitive !Zoom, the -ih clause was used for verbs with no preverbs attached.) | |||
jabhic /'dʒabʰɪts/ < jabhacih 'I raise' | |||
jabhik /'dʒabʰɪk/ < jabhukih 'you (sg.) raise' | |||
jabh /dʒabʰ/ < jabhah 'he, she, it raises' | |||
jobghu /'dʒogʘʰu/ < jabhuσuh 'we raise' | |||
jobŋhi /'dʒoŋʘʰi/ < jabhumih 'you (pl.) raise' | |||
jäpkha /'dʒɛʘʰa/ < jabhikhah 'they raise' | |||
With another preverb the dependent forms are used: | |||
bó·jabhac /bo:'dʒabʰats/ < bô-jábhac 'I do not raise' | |||
bó·jobh /bo:'dʒobʰ/ < bô-jábhuk 'you do not raise' | |||
bó·jabh /bo:'dʒabʰ/ < bô-jábha 'he does not raise' | |||
bó·jobhaσ /bo:'dʒobʰaɬ/ < bô-jábhuσu 'we do not raise' | |||
bó·jobham /bo:'dʒobʰam/ < bô-jábhumi 'you (pl.) do not raise' | |||
bó·jäbhakh /bo:'dʒɛbʰakʰ/ < bô-jábhikha 'they do not raise ' | |||
A verb with a preverb attached: | |||
(these forms are "deuterotonic". Observe that this paradigm is similar to the unprefixed dependent paradigm above) | |||
dha·jgabhac /dʰa'gǂabʰats/ < dhakw-jábhac 'I attract' | |||
dha·jgobh /dʰa'gǂobʰ/ < dhakw-jábhuk 'you attract' | |||
dha·jgabh /dʰa'gǂabʰ/ < dhakw-jábha 'he attracts' | |||
dha·jgobhaσ /dʰa'gǂobʰaɬ/ < dhakw-jábhuσô 'we attract' | |||
dha·jgobham /dʰa'gǂobʰam/ < dhakw-jábhumi 'you (pl.) attract' | |||
dha·jgäbhakh /dʰa'gǂɛbʰakʰ/ < dhakw-jábhikha 'they attract' | |||
With another preverb the dependent forms are used: | |||
(these forms are called "prototonic".) | |||
bó·dhabgwhac /bo:'dʰagʘʷʰats/ < bô-dhákw-jabhac 'I do not attract' | |||
bó·dhabgwh /bo:'dʰagʘʷʰ/ < bô-dhákw-jabhuk 'you do not attract' | |||
bó·dhabgwh /bo:'dʰagʘʷʰ/ < bô-dhákw-jabha 'he does not attract' | |||
bó·dhabgwhaσ /bo:'dʰagʘʷʰaɬ/ < bô-dhákw-jabhuσô 'we do not attract' | |||
bó·dhabgwham /bo:'dʰagʘʷʰam/ < bô-dhákw-jabhumi 'you (pl.) do not attract' | |||
