________________
Note - (i) After adding causative suffixes to the Verbs, the Tense suf
fixes are added to construct Causative Forms in different Tenses, as, Hásai = To cause to laugh, Hasávai - To cause to laugh. [Present Tense Third Person Singular.) (ii) If there is a long Vowel adjacent to the final syllable ‘avi' suffix is added besides the above suffixes, as, Rūsa + avi = Rūsavi (Margopadeśika P. 320) (iii) In Arsa Prākṣta causative suffix ave is also used. On adding ave suffix a which is adjacent to the final syllable is changed into 'a' as Kara + ave - Kärave.
(B) Causative Suffixes for the
Passive Voice and the Impersonal Form Verbs
Suffixes avi, o avi
0 (zero) Hasa - To laugh Hasa+ävi : Hasåvi Hasa+0 = Häsa
['a' which is adjacent to the final syllable is
changed into a.) Kara - To do Kara+avi - Karāvi Kara+0 = Kāra
['a' which is adjacent to the final syllable is
changed into a'.] Duha - To milk Duha+åvi - Duhävi Duha+o: Duha Rusa = To sulk
Rusa+ăvi = Rüsávi Rūsa+0 = Rūsa Tha = To stay
Thătāvi: Thaavi Thă+0: Thá Note - After adding the Causative Suffixes to the Verbs, the suffixes of
the Passive Voice and the Impersonal Form are added to the Causatives. Karavi+ijja/ia - Karávijja/Karávia - To cause to do. Rüsăvi+ijja/ia = Rūsávijja/Rūsávia - To cause to sulk.
