Introduction to Sambahsa:
Lesson 58

By mundialecter

Some special Sambahsa verbs are "nasal infix" verbs. They are ablautless, and their last vowel is IPA ə, after or before an n or an m. So, brinegh (IPA 'brinəg) = bring is one of those verbs. Before adding the past participle ending, the last e and the neighbouring m or n have to be deleted.

Let's say He has brought back those things. in Sambahsa. Remember, he is is. back, when meaning again, is tsay, the -ay being pronounced like I. those is ta and thing is ject (think at *object). For the past participle of brinegh, use the -en ending.

He has brought back those things.

Answer: Is hat brighen tsay ta jects.
