@action word

An action word or verboid is either a true verb (with a /tiG), or a fakeverb (with a /sup) that fakes being a verb by working as the main word of a sentence, while still having a /sup at the end, so technically being a noun.

(An action noun is an abstract noun that means an action, such as "a killing".)

Some example sentences built with true verbs (parentheses show the tense):

gajas sarpaM hanti गजः सर्पं हन्ति "the elephant is killing the snake" (/laT)

gajena sarpo hanyate गजेन सर्पो हन्यते "the elephant is killing the snake" (/yak + /laT)

gajas sarpam ahan गजः सर्पमहन् "the elephant killed the snake" (/laG)

Some example sentences built with fakeverbs (parentheses show its /kRt):

gajena sarpo hataH गजेन सर्पो हतः "the elephant killed the snake" (/kta)

gajas sarpaM hatavAn गजः सर्पं हतवान् "the elephant killed the snake" (/ktavatu)

gajena sarpo vadhyaH गजेन सर्पो वध्यः "the elephant should / might / would kill the snake" (some /kRtya)

**hatas हतस् is formed like this —

han हन् + /kta m + /su because sarpaH सर्पः is m and has /su
→ ha ह + /kta + /su losing n न् by anudAttop...
→ !**hatas हतस्
