This relates to a question asked only recently regarding paradigms and rules. I don't necessarily recommend memorizing paradigms, but I do think that it is advisable to review the paradigms in order to discern the characteristics of the various forms. From learning the characteristics of each grouping in the paradigm one can then begin to recognize the various forms when they are encountered rather than relying on a crutch, which may be nothing other than a broken stick, to tell him what the form happens to be. Yes, I have seen cases where morphological analyses were in error (I sometimes check them to verify my own reading and have disagreed with them).

My apology again.
The same mistake I had before. Reading off the parsing abbreviation on the
file e-Sword is different from the one I have on a book (with M
standing for imperative on the one and for middle on the other.)
