·     Could be considered one of the “irregular” (i.e. non-CVC) verbs. L&D.p46 explains that the common non-CVC transitive verbs are:

o IL / ILA “see”.

o A’L “say”.

o TZ’IHBA “write” / “paint”.

Their classification as such seems to be based on a combination of their actual phonetic form and the inflections they take (e.g. they are different from CVC-verbs in the passive).

·     25EMC is a varied selection of the other sources, plus two additional ones not given elsewhere (25EMC.pdfp36.#4.6&7):

o 25EMC.pdfp36.#4.1 = JM.p96.#4.

o 25EMC.pdfp36.#4.2 = K&L.p37.#1.6.

o 25EMC.pdfp36.#4.3 = K&L.p37.#1.5.

o 25EMC.pdfp36.#4.4 = K&L.p37.#1.7.

o 25EMC.pdfp36.#4.5 = K&L.p37.#1.8.
