This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1871 edition. Excerpt: ...may be prefixed to other parts of the verb to intensify its meaning: Kuogopa nguogopa, fearing I fear, i.e., I fear exceedingly. INDICATIVE MOOD. Present Tense: The present tense is formed by prefixing the sign of the person to the infinitive. The sign of the first person being the letter n-, it changes the initial kof the infinitive into-g-: N-gu-tenda, I do. U-ku-tenda, thou dost. A-ku-tenda, he or she does. U-ku-tenda, ji-ku-tenda, chi-ku-tenda, li-ku tenda, lu-ku-tenda, ka-ku-tenda, pa-ku tenda, it does. Tu-ku-tenda, we do. M-ku-tenda, you do. A-ku-tenda, they do. Ji-ku-tenda, si-ku-tenda, i-ku-tenda, ga-ku-tenda, tu-ku-tenda, they do. There is also a tense made by using-pa-instead of-&u-.
