Chapter Summary

In both the H and Hp suffix-conjugation forms, a prefixed [ARABIC TEXT] forms a closed syllable with the first radical of the root. In the H stem, this syllable has a ḥîreq, while in the Hp it has a u-class vowel. As in the N stem, the suffix-conjugation forms of the H and Hp are identical to those of the G stem from the middle radical to the end of the word (with the exception of the third-person forms of the H, which have an accented i-class vowel in the second syllable).

The H and Hp prefix conjugations were marked by a [ARABIC TEXT] prefixed to the root (with an a-class vowel in the H, a u-class vowel in the Hp), which formed a closed syllable with the first radical of the root and to which the prefix-conjugation preformatives were attached. This [ARABIC TEXT] elided, and the preformative took the vowel of the elided [ARABIC TEXT]. The H prefix-conjugation forms are marked by an accented i-class vowel in the second syllable, the Hp by an a-class vowel.

The H stem is usually the causative of the G stem, and the Hp is the passive to the H.
