LESSON TWO
160 In AMg. there are three tenses, the Present expressing actions that are being performed at the time when the statement is made or actions outside the scope of timerelation, the Past expressing actions that are already performed and the Future which expresses acts which are yet to be performed.
For the uses of the tenses cf. 416-429. The aspects of the verbs are not preserved except in the present when expressing a general statement.
161 Unlike Sk. there is only one set of terminations to be applied to the roots and it is the same as that of the Parasmaipada of Sanskrit. All verbs in AMg. take these very terminations. Some forms of the Atmanepada are, however, met with in literature, but are of limited occurrence and may be regarded as irregular forms.
