Lesson 34: He Gives
Index · Lesson 33: He Does · Lesson 35: He Takes
ददाति means “he gives.” The root is दा. It does not follow पठति. The singular keeps दा. The plural shortens it.
| Give | |
|---|---|
| अहम् | ददामि |
| त्वम् | ददासि |
| सः / सा | ददाति |
| वयम् | दद्मः |
| यूयम् | दत्थ |
| ते | ददति |
The friend’s command is देहि, “give.” That one word does not follow पठ. भवान् ददातु। You all: दत्त. They: ददतु.
