FORMATION

OF THE

MOODS AND TENSES.

ACTIVE VOICE.

Every regular Verb has six principal parts, in the active voice, from which all the moods and tenses are formed: viz. (69) 1. The imperative; as, buail, strike; crom, bend.

2 The infinitive, usually formed by adding 40, to the imperative, if the last vowel is broad; ead, if small; as, do buailead, or do bualad, to strike; do cromad, to bend. (70)

3. The present, formed by adding im, or am to the imperative; as buailim, I strike; cromam, I bend.

4. The preter formed by adding 4r, Ir, or ear to the imperative; as, do buajleas, I struck; do ċromas, I bent.

5. The future, formed by adding ad, ead, or 1d; fad, fead, or Fio, to the imperative; as, buailfead, I will strike; cromfad I will bend. (71)

6. The consuetudinal, subjunctive, formed by adding, fan fuiñ, or fin, to the imperative; as da mbuailfiñ, had I struck; gcromfun, had I bent. (72)

Regular verbs are therefore conjugated through the primary tenses active, in this manner;

Buail, do bualad, buailim, do buaileas, buailfead, da mbuailfiñ, strike.

Bris, do brisead, brisim, do briseas, brisfead, da mbrirçin, break.

Báist, do báistead, báistim, do báisteas, báistfead, da mbáistfiñ, baptize.
