Talk:खेळ्चे

Hello, since 🇨🇬 exists is the reconstruction *khel- offered by CDIAL unnecessary? I have observed several instances where CDIAL uses reconstruction even when there is a suitable Sanskrit word available as the etymon.

Also, out of curiosity what would be the Marathi equivalent of 🇨🇬 (stem + टा)?
 * present imperfective second-person masculine singular:
 * खेळतो(य)स? खेळ (stem) + त (imperfective) + ओ(य)स (second-person masculine singular)
 * present imperfective third-person masculine singular:
 * खेळतो(य)? खेळ (stem) + त (imperfective) + ओ(य) (third-person masculine singular)


 * Or based on the appearance alone does 🇨🇬 have any relation to 🇨🇬? as in:
 * मला क्रिकेट खेळता येत नाही. (abilitative quasi-aspectual)
 * क्रिकेट खेळता खेळता (duplicated present participle ता)
 * सुरक्षेशी खेळता कामा नये. (emphatic denial, negation of पाहिजे)

 * I agree: I was not aware of the existence of so I went with the etymology given in other cognate words' entries. We can simply change them and derive these words from.


 * 🇨🇬 is the present imperfective of the first, second and third person singular and plural, although in some dialects the imperfective of the plural persons may vary. In this respect it is analogous to 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬 etc except that Marathi and Hindi have different words for different persons, whereas in Konkani 🇨🇬 alone served the purpose for all the persons.


 * The original suffix here is which got retroflexed to  to agree with the retroflexed  in the stem. -- Bhagadatta (talk) 05:21, 3 May 2019 (UTC)


 * Thanks! Your explanation of what the present imperfective represents in Konkani is very helpful. When I created 🇨🇬, I was also unaware of the existence of, so when the entry for was created about a year later it caught my attention. Since you agree with the change from *khel- to , the etymologies given in the cognate words' entries could be updated eventually. Kutchkutch (talk) 07:56, 5 May 2019 (UTC)
