156 Accidence [§324 b. Passive. Present, INDIC. SUBJ. Sing. i. salbōđa salbōđáu •2. salbōza salbōzáu 3. salbōda salbōđáu Plur. 1.2. 3. salbōnda salbōndáu § 824. The second class of verbs is denominative and originally belonged partly to the athematic and partly to the thematic conjugation (§ 280). The first pers. sing, of the former ended in -ami and of the latter in -ājō. The a became -ō in the prim. Germanic period (§ 42). In Gothic the -ō became extended to all forms of the verb. The Gothic and OHG. pres. indie, belongs to the athematic conjugation and OE. partly to the one and partly to the other. The prim. Germanic forms corresponding to the Gothic and OHG. were: Sing. *salbō-mi, *salbō-zi, *salbō-đl; dual *sarbō-(w)iz, *salbō-điz; PI. *saTbō-miz, *salbō-đi, *sarbō-nđi; from which the corresponding Gothic forms were regularly developed except salbōts (on which see §§ 287, 292) and the first pers. singular which would have become *salbōm as in OHG. The form salbō presents difficulties. It was probably a new formation with -a from the other classes of weak verbs and then *salba became salbō with ō from the other forms of the present. The cause of the new formation was doubtless due to the fact that the first pers. sing and pi. would otherwise have been alike. The pres. subjunctive is an old conjunctive (not optative as in Class I) and corresponds to the pres. subjunctive forms in the OHG. Franconian dialect: salbo, salbōs(t), salbo; salbōm, salbōt, salbōn. The prim. Germanic forms were : Sing. *salbō-m, *salt)ō-z, *salbō (Indg. -t); dual *salbō-wæ, *salbō-điz; PI. *salDO-mæ, *salbō-đi, *salnō-n (Indg. -nt). In Goth, the first and third pers. sing, would regularly be *salba. The -ō in salbō was
