This drill covers all major pronominal suffix constructions on verbs introduced in BBH Chapter 19. Students parse 25 forms across four parts: Part A (Perfect + suffix), Part B (Imperfect + suffix, including energic nun identification), Part C (Imperative and Wayyiqtol + suffix), and Part D (Infinitive Construct + suffix, where the critical distinction is that the suffix marks the subject, not the object of the action).
