CONTINUATIVE VERB.
24. This verb serves to continue the action, and is made from the
future, omitting the tze and substituting sem or sen, as nen?rsem, I
am continually talking, from nehren, I speak; the future, nen?rtze;
biquesen, I am thus singing, from biquen, I sing; future, bequetze,
for which there appearing to be no perfect, the imperfect, b?quesenru
may be used, and the same is the case with the words that end in hon,
as merihon, go running; nenerhon, be speaking; biquehon, be singing,
of which the future termination is sintze, as nen?rsintze.
COMPLETIVE VERB.
25. This gives completeness to the signification of the word out of
which it is made so full that nothing remains further, and is formed
of the future taking away the final tze, and placing suam instead, as,
ba?n, I eat; b?tze, I will eat; besuam, I eat until I have finished
it all; todam, I leave; todetz, I will leave; todesuam, I leave
forever,--at once. The penitent may say, Oquine ha?na no cananacemca
todesuatze, Now, forevermore, I will leave my sins; the perfect being
formed in coari, and the future in uatze.
ESTIMATIVE VERB.
26. This denotes the judgment that one forms of anything, as,
d?nitzem, I judge it good; d?ni meaning good; hana Diosi denitzem,
perhaps you esteem God? nee eme deosaritzem, I judge you happy;
deosari meaning happy; nee eme n?ventzem, I consider you poor--pity
you; n?ven meaning poor: and they form the perfect, tziui, and future
tzi?htze.
