Pael/D stem verbs
@Antonklroberts Can we use the M- prefix on D stem verbs as it is originally and in classical syriac, so mtammim instead of tammim, mzabbin instead of zabbin etc. Because originally the form tammim would be the imperative while mtammim is the active participle/non-past form. What happened is this distinction was lost in most dialects, and led to either mtammim or tammim being used for both the imperative and non-past, but it would be good to preserve the original distinction in writing.

 * I will have to fix all the conjugation templates up which is fine. Originally the Iraqi Koine dosent have the m- prefix because it becomes difficult to distiguish between D and C stems in the non-past. Never the less I agree it is preferable to preserve the original distinction in writing as the active participle traditionally had the m- prefix such as Classical Syriac.
