Here are some useful mnemonics, some of which I heard at qepHom
wa'maHDIch in Saarbrücken last week (November 2011), some of which I
had come up with on my own:
{poS vaj nIH} "It's open, so he steals it" - to help you remember that
{poS} is "left" and {nIH} is "right". (From loghaD, I believe.)
{moHaq} has a protrusion on the upper side (the "H"), so it means "prefix".
{mojaq} has a protrusion on the lower side (the "j"), so it means "suffix".
(This one is my own.)
{-Qo'} is a "type 8.5" suffix, since it always comes last except when
followed by a type 9 suffix.
Similarly, {-Ha'} is a "type 0.5" suffix, since it always comes right
after the verb stem, even before any type 1 suffix.
chaq latlhvaD lI' qechmeyvam.
Cheers,
Philip
