_A. INFLECTION OF THE STRONG VERBS._
§ 169. The inflection of the strong verbs (by means of personal
endings) is the same in all three classes (§ 168). Therefore we first
giv the paradims of inflection and then discuss the formation of the
tense-stems (which is different in each class). As paradims may serv
a reduplicating verb, =haitan=, _to be calld_, and two ablaut verbs,
=niman=, _to take_, and =biudan=, _to offer_.
