Pa'al Group 3
Moving from the Infinitive into the Present Tense
The vowels in this structure in the present tense are...O...E…
The difference between group 3 and group 1 is that group 3 verbs always end with a
letter ? ה?in the present tense.
In group 3 for feminine singular we maintain the letter ? ה?at the end of the verb, but
the vowel sound is changed to "AH" instead of "E"
For plural we add the ending ? ים?for masculine and ? ות?for feminine, but we lose the
previous last letter ? ה?because we cannot have two consecutive vowels ?ה ה?
