Besides the ordinary imperfect, which expresses the action simply, there are certain modifications of it which indicate the relation of the action to the speaker’s will or feelings. The speaker may throw his own feelmg into the word in two ways, either by a sharp, hasty utterance of it, thus expressing peremptory rvish\ or on the contrary by a lengthening out of the word, giving expression to the direction of the mind or action. The short form that arises in the first way is called the Jussive] the other or lengthened form has been named the Cohortative} 1) The Jussive. The Jussive arises through a contraction of the last syll. of the impf.; but as in the regular verb ^ Both the Jussive and Cohortative are comprehended by Ewald under the name Voluntative ] for Cohortative Bottcher prefers to use the term Intentional.
