Verbs with active meaning normally take the ending -im.Verbs with passive meaning normally take the ending in -am; however the -am-ending ist usually somewhat looser and through metaphorical extension can have an active meaning again.
If a verb aquires a new meaning in it's passive form that then shall be "turned active" again, the ending -arim might be used.
Example: kalim [move oneself] -> kalam [be moved (by something/someone)] -> kalarim [move something]
Prefixes:
ee(dh)- [from eedhi (many): intensifier; do something a lot or in an extreme fashion (kalim [move] -> eekalim [travel])]
yai [from yagyas (start): signifies the start of an action (e.g. qazim [sleep] -> yaiqazim [fall asleep])] ✎ Edit Article ✖ Delete Article
