Usage notes
- When negating propositions, accusative direct objects change to the genitive.
- The connegative of vat, *vata, does not exist: hjeat on its own means to not be, unless accompanying a connegative form of another verb, in which case it acts as negation of that verb.
- Note also that hjeat has no compound forms. For negative compound forms, see vat.
- As an auxiliary, hjeat must still bear all matrix inflection.
- The exception to this is voice, where non-finite forms have separate passive forms. Therefore, when negating a passive verb, the passive is marked in the connegative, as hjeat does not have passive forms.
- When introducing a predicate ending in a consonant, enclitic forms with initial h- elided (not hj-) can be used.
- The verb hjeat does not have a connegative form, being the negated form of vat.
