Full Screen (Interactive) Print / PDF Markdown
This exercise presents twenty Peal imperfect verb forms drawn from the Biblical Aramaic corpus (Daniel and Ezra) and from the standard strong-verb paradigm. For each form, students identify the three-letter root, give the full PGN (person, gender, number), and translate the form. The drill covers all ten persons of the imperfect paradigm and includes both strong roots and the major weak-root classes introduced in BBA Chapter 14.
