 Childers thinks the form defi has arisen either from Sanskrit dayate, or from confusion with the imperative defu. The form dajjati he, with great probability, considers as a future on the analogy of dekh (sec § 4). In Cauraseni Prakrit the form दे is used throughout (Var. xii. 4), as also in the moderns. H. दे, P.M. G. id., S. fea, B. alone has दा, 0. दे, shortened in some tenses to दि. Gipsy daca, Kash. dyun, Singh. denara. This is one of the few irregular verbs in the modern languages; being subjected to numerous contractions, and retaining several early Tadbhava forms.

Further examples are:

Skr. ✓ पा “drink,” i. पिवति [Vedic पिपा, there is also ✓ पी, iv. पीयते], Pa. पिवति and पिव०, Pr. पिअइ, H. पी, S. and B. पि, in all the rest पी Gipsy pidra, Kash. chyun, perhaps through an old form pyun, Singh. bonava, p.p.p. bi.

(a) With आ--आनी “bring,” Pa. Bafa, Pr. आणेद, H. आन “bring,” in all the rest Say. Kashm. anun, Gipsy andva.

(6) With परि ८८ परिनी “lead round the sacrificial fire during the marriage ceremony,” hence, “to marry,” Old-H. परण, पर ना, P. परनाहु, S. Ut, 6. M. UT.

Skr. Ve “fly,” with sq= gt “fly up,” i. उड्डयते, iv. उड्डीयते, Pr. Bat. H. S€ (ny) “६० fly,” and so in all. S. has उडिर, probably a diminutive. Kashm. wudun, Gipsy urydea.

The root या “to go,” was mentioned above; with the preposi- tion आ forming आया, it means “to come,” and it is from this word that the following are apparently derived:

Skr. आया “come,” ii. आयाति, Pa. id, Pr. आआइू, WE, 8. BW “to come,” P. id., G. आव, M. ये, Gipsy avdva, Kash. yun. The 8.
