If a verb has three syllables, and the second is short TJ, as t» «SbXb adugu, (to ask) tfs&^i caduvu to read, S&ifc carugu to bite, Z&fa cariigu to melt; this U changes into I when the termination changes into C), S (I, e, e): this happens in the past p|| the 3d pers. sing, of the past tense, and one aorist p|[. Thus tJSa cadivi (having read) ^adive he read, and KQ"^ e,adive, who

reads.

And these verbs have also the liberty of changing the middle \) U into «/ a when the final vowel D of the Root ends in «^ a: thus iJifcsS gaduva or £T«sS ^adava to read.

The Relative participle is formed by adding if NA to the past participle: thus froin<*>o?j pampi having sent comes a>o&j4 pomp" na that sent.

The aorist participle is derived from the Root either by using the root itself; or changing the final \) (U) of it into -G, (e, eti) or-=>«& or (Sdu, edi): thus, *o*6); sSJoti^o^d, a&c'Sjjo, Zoloft that sends.

ON TENSES.

The tenses are formed by adding the personal terminations to the root or else to the present and past participles.

[The following rules on formation, marked with inverted commas ['] in the margin, were framed by a native tutor in the College. They may perhaps be useful to those who study Telugu in Europe: these principles may be occasionally referred to when a doubt arises. Such as read the language in India will seldom require these rules: which will be easily acquired without being studied in this method.)
