kittydesadeVerbs of the second class! And much more conjugation:
The second verb class differs from the first in having mostly two-syllable imperative stems and long vowels in the endings. The second syllable of the imperative singular in this class of verbs often ends in -igh, which is dropped when the endings are added. As usual, the unpronounced letter a is added between the suffix and a verb ending in a broad consonant.
to buy: ceannaigh, ceannaígí: ceannaím, ceannaíonn tú, ceannaíonn sé, ceannaíonn sí, ceannaímid/ceannaíonn muid, ceannaíonn sibh, ceannaíonn siad
to rise: éirigh, éirígí: éirím, éiríonn tú, éiríonn sé, éiríonn sí, éirímid/éiríonn muid, éiríonn sibh, éiríonn siad
to go, depart: imigh, imígí: imím. imíonn tú, imíonn sé, imíonn sí, imímid/imíonn muid, imíonn sibh, imíonn siad
to settle, arrange: socraigh, socraígí: socraím, socraíonn tú, socraíonn sé, socraíonn sí, socraímid/socraíonn muid, socraíonn sibh, socraíonn siad
If the second syllable (sometimes the first) ends in -l, -r, or -n, an unstressed short vowel in the second syllable is omitted when an ending is added, unless loss of the vowel would produce a difficult-to-pronounce sequence of consonants:
to open: oscail, osclaígí: osclaím, osclaíonn tú, osclaíonn sé, osclaíonn sí, osclaímid/osclaíonn muid, osclaíonn sibh, osclaíonn siad
to play: imir, imrígí: imrím, imríonn tú, imríonn sé, imríonn sí, imrímid/imríonn muid, imríonn sibh, imríonn siad
to tell: inis, insígí: insím, insíonn tú, insíonn sé, insíonn sí, insímid/insíonn muid, insíonn sibh, insíonn siad
to learn: foghlaim, foghlaimígí: foghlaimím, foghlaimíonn tú, foghlaimíonn sé, foghlaimíonn sí, foghlaimímid/foghlaimíonn muid, foghlaimíonn sibh, foghlaimíonn siad
Lordy. I forgot how hard and tiring conjugating verbs can be. On the plus side, after this I can move on to the next grammar point. Which is more conjugating, but with different bits attached? Oof. And I need to reinforce my vocab of both Russian and Irish. Languages. So tiring. But so much FUN.
The feasibility study came back on the house as okay except for a couple details which need to be addressed in the bid, for which I want to strangle everyone ever. And my poor contractor is going to want to strangle everyone ever. And half of it is stupid shit I can do my own goddamn self. Fix the opening to the crawlspace? FINE. Give me a sheet of plywood cut to size at fucking Home Depot and a screwgun and some screws. THERE I FIXED IT FOR YOU. And vegetation that needs to be uprooted and moved or transplanted and and argh. I can do this shit myself fuck you. But of course now I'm not allowed to because rules. And the general contractor has to do it. Fuck your rules.
But, heh. Other than that the feasibility study was fine. The amount Renovations Lady estimates we'll need to close up the gap is less than the amount she wasn't seeing on account of it hadn't cleared in the boy's account yet (stocks and things), so that's still good, although I am going to kick my dumb ass to go ask for family help just to be safer. Worst that happens, I don't need the money, and I give it back. Or probably not, because they fuss, but maybe give some of it back. And yes, I realize I am incredibly lucky to be able to do this at all. My family is, in a word, awesome. So is the boy's, because we wouldn't be able to do this without them either.
So, long slog, hopefully almost over. Work as usual today, tonight I have DJing and Leverage saved up, and possibly I can manage to do everything that I need to do today. Somehow. Also, if this crush on Peter Dinklage gets any bigger it's going to have its own zip code. Just saying. It's rivaling the Sasha Roiz and Jeremy Renner droolpuddles.
