Exempel

  • For example, in the Aaronide blessing, only two of the six verbs are formally jussives, yet all have the same volitional sense.
  • As far as the jussive goes — ignoring the very few occurrences of this in first person — it can be noted that most of the second-person jussives are in negative commands.
  • If, on the other hand, reference is made purely to the root, we would expect all frequentative jussives to appear with a front element, producing *mɨt′ət′ɨs instead of mɨt′ət′ɨs (19d).
  • The jussive and cohortative usually convey more indirect, or more subtle, expressions of volition than the imperative does.
