This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1873 Excerpt: ...school. On the use of the datire case of a verbal noun. 386. The dative case of a Telugu verbal noun may as a general rule b regarded as equivalent to, and translateable by the English infinitk Hence it is the form most commonly used to express the purpose of tb action described by the principal verb. Thus--He is a man able to do that work. o co 'eo I have no desire to go there. It is not possible to do that work in six days. - A He did not consent to do that work. CO CO Have you bespoken a bandy for me to go to Bunder? (Purpose.) I will give you a rupee to bring that box. (Purpose.) II. ON THE INFINITIVE MOOD. On the ordinary nses of the infinitive in Telugu. 387. The Telugu infinitive mood (e. g. (jxTcSb, X&zS, ) is not s frequently used in common conversation as the English infinitive moo (e. g. to strike, to write, to walk). It is seldom used except in the follow ing instances--First. To form a compound verb, e. g. sS&sweo to strike do(r) SXieo to striJee in, "6;53e oeo to lift up, etc. SECONDLY. To form a compound tense with such words as--tf-Sby etc. Thus--d&-C&tfb, rr !386, $ZSetc. etc. Thirdly. When used in connexion with a few particular verbs, e. g. dejc-tfbk, g-uSok, estfospo- Sbeo, s&eo, etc. Thus--ab )o &yo-D )? (or dSb'sr'SSSc).) What have you thought to do? Will you allow me to come? es S53 d&tfoo-Sb. (or dt6-ST'S6.) He has begun to do that work. 388. Note. 1. When the verb which follows the infinitive begins with a vowel, the letter is added to the infinitive as in the last two examples. 389. Note. 2. The verb TPS-CSoeo is considered as one word, and hence governs an objective case. Hence also we could not say--tfASo tr, JST?SSb grTr?--but I3a5o TrzSzr'cS$o (jt-so) go-0? W.
