mostly for wishes ("May s/he verb!"). Verb components Georgian is an agglutinating language. Agglutination means that affixes each express a single meaning, and they usually do not merge with each other or affect each other phonologically. Each verb screeve is formed by adding a number of prefixes and suffixes to the verb stem. Certain affix categories are limited to certain screeves. In a given screeve, not all possible markers are obligatory. The components of a Georgian verb form occur in the following order: Preverb Preverbs can add either directionality or an arbitrary meaning to the verb. To this extent they resemble the derivational prefixes of Slavic verbs. For example, while mi-vdivar means "I am going", mo-vdivar means "I am coming". Preverbs appear in the future, past and perfective screeves; they are generally absent in the present screeves. Preverbs indicating direction and orientation. Verb personality One, two or three grammatical persons can be indicated in the Georgian verb. The performer of an action is called the subject or the agent, and affected persons are patients or objects (indirect or direct). The category of number (singular or plural) is also indicated. To indicate subjects and objects the special markers are used, which are listed in the following tables. The S2 and O3 marker h- evolved from earlier x-, which was first attested in the 5th century. The h variant appears for the first time in the Tsqisi (წყისი) inscription (616–619 y.y.) and from the second half of the 8th century it becomes predominant. From the 9th century the h → s transformation is documented before the dental stops (d, ṭ, t) and affricates (ʒ, ċ, c, ǯ, č', č). In Modern Georgian before vowels the h- marker vanishes. In general, in Modern Georgian the S2 and O3 h-/s- prefixes have a tendency to fade away. The oldest S2 x- is preserved with three verbal stems:ar "to be" → xar "you are"ved/vid "to come/go" → mo-x-ved-i "you came", mo-x-vid-odi "you would come"val "to come/go" → mo-x-val "you will come" Here is presented subject markers' usage example: In the case of v-ts'er-t, ts'ert, and ts'er-en, the -t and -en are the subject plurality markers. Here is presented object markers' usage example" In the case of g-i-nd-a-t and u-nd-a-t, the -t is the plural marker. Georgian's polypersonalism allows the involvement of as many as three action participants to be expressed unambiguously within a single word.
