Proto-Indo-European
[edit]Infix
[edit]*-né- (oblique stem *-n-)
- Forms mostly transitive imperfective verbs from perfective intransitive roots.
Usage notes
[edit]The infix is inserted into the zero grade of the root, before the final consonant, which must be a stop or laryngeal. The root must also contain a sonorant non-initially. The verb thus formed ablauts like a normal athematic verb. In the zero grade, the -n- is never syllabic, the preceding sonorant is instead.
