Thread:User talk:CodeCat/Arabic defective verbs

I just realized that your change to this category isn't quite right. Arabic defective verbs aren't "defective" in the sense of missing parts of their conjugations; rather, "defective verb" is here used in a special sense to mean verbs that have a w or y as their last radical, which causes all sorts of irregularities in their conjugation. If you're familiar with Hebrew, they are like Hebrew lamed-he verbs.
