Q
How is the future passive participle, or the potential participle, formed?
A
By adding -tabba / -anyīa to the base of the verb; -tabba is mostly added with the connecting vowel -i-.
These participles are declined like -a ending nouns in the masculine and neuter genders, and like -ā ending nouns in the feminine.
They express ideas such as ‘must,’ ‘should be’ and ‘fit to be.’
