QTL and YQTL

Looking forward to the Hebrew class tonight. We are now learning the Qal YQTL paradigms. My esteemed teacher forbids us to use the terms “perfect” and “imperfect”. Rather, the paradigmatic verb forms QTL and YQTL are to be used.

Funny that Hebrew uses QTL (to kill) as the paradigmatic verb, and Greek uses lyo (to destroy).
