WEAK VERBS
The weak verbs form the past tense and past participle in a quite different way, using a suffix with a
vowel followed by -d-, which is the ancestor of the modern inflection in -ed (see `-ED' suffix¹).
Thuslufian LOVE v.¹ (a weak Class II verb) shows 1st and 3rd person past singular lufode.
Weak verbs often originated as derivative formations, and often preserve some aspect of this in their
meaning, as for example showing causative or inchoative meaning: see below on clan `to (cause
to) cool' and clian `to become cool'.
