Download: Anki import (.txt) · Flashcards Deluxe (-fd.txt)

Scope note: The Pual is studied in only three conjugations — Perfect, Imperfect, and Participle. The Pual has no Imperative (passive stems cannot take imperatival forms). This deck covers diagnostic-highlights coverage across four weak classes. For full paradigm practice, use the paradigm drill exercise.

28 cards covering 4 weak classes in Pual conjugations.

Roots / Classes: - מצא (III-א) — to be found - גלה (III-ה) — to be uncovered, disclosed - נחם (II-Guttural, virtual doubling) — to be comforted, consoled - ברך (II-Guttural, compensatory lengthening) — to be blessed

Key Diagnostic Summary¶

Card Front	Expected Back
Which Pual weak classes deviate significantly from the strong verb?	Only II-Guttural — the guttural in R2 rejects Dagesh Forte; III-א and III-ה preserve all Pual diagnostics
Pual II-Guttural virtual doubling: what changes?	No visible Dagesh in R2 (guttural); Patach (or Hateph Patach) under R2; Qibbuts under R1 is preserved
Pual II-Guttural compensatory lengthening (ר): what changes?	Qibbuts under R1 lengthens to Holem; no Dagesh in ר
How to distinguish Pual Participle from Hophal Participle?	Pual: מְ + Qibbuts under R1 + Dagesh in R2; Hophal: מוּ or מֻ prefix, NO Dagesh in R2
Pual III-ה Perfect 3ms vs. Piel III-ה Perfect 3ms?	Pual: גֻּלָּה (Qibbuts under R1); Piel: גִּלָּה (Hireq under R1)
