Dr. Neilson gives the following as the Preter Tense :<br />
b-jreAttji I^OID bA iD-bvA]tfp ti)e, / wish I had been<br />
struck, but bA is never used in this form, it should be<br />
30 ; Negative, b-peAftjt IJOID PAC rt}bvA}tj:j& TD&, I wish<br />
I had not been struck.<br />
Every part <strong>of</strong> the Passive Voice may, likewise, be<br />
formed, by joining the Preter Participle Passive, to<br />
the Auxiliary bf ; as, CA n? buA^lce, / am struck ; bf<br />
TTJ& buA^lce, I was struck, &c.<br />
To express continuance, the Present Participle<br />
having AT;, or 3 A (5 A,) with a Possessive Pronoun<br />
prefixed, is joined to the Verb bf ; as, CA n?& 5* njo<br />
bvAlA8, / am in striking, (CA TD^ A3 mo biiAlAb, i.e.<br />
I am at my striking J bf me SA mo bvAlA6, / was in<br />
