====Agent imperative==== | |||
As the bare imperative is patientive, apart from the normal agentive form (e.g. ''nāmvikṣaça!'' "crush!"), there is a "reduced" agentive form, invariable for person. This is formed starting from the infinitive and adding the following endings (actually the conjugation of an older verb from Proto-Lahob *kij- "to result, to end up being"): | |||
* '''-i̯yė''' for normal exterior (''nāmvakeiyė!'' "crush!") | |||
* '''-i̯re''' for normal interior (''dældakeire!'' "speak!") | |||
* '''-i̯xhāt''' for causative exterior (''nāmvakeixhāt!'' "make it crush!") | |||
* '''-i̯raxhāt''' for causative interior (''mišakeiraxhāt!'' "learn!") | |||
The causative forms are sometimes found with ''-yixhāt'' and ''-yiraxhāt'' (e.g. ''nāmvakeyixhāt'', ''mišakeyiraxhāt'') in very old preclassical texts. | |||
