Easy Croaan (rev. 47b) / 86 More Verbs and Standing Outcomes 476 / 600

prefix used with meaning

do- A finalize, complete

iz- A carry out, execute

za- A end, terminate

One derived pair matches the meaning of a phase verb pair I’ve already introduced:

počinjati (počinje / počinje) ~ početi (počne, počeo) start

završavati («) ~ završiti («) end

This verb pair is very useful:

navikavati («) ~ naviknuti (navikne) (AX / se²) (na YA) get/become used (X) (to Y)

You’ll see this pair with the prefix pri- with roughly the same meaning, and with the

prefix od- in the opposite meaning, like colloquial English ‘get unused’.

Next, there are four common verb pairs derived from this ‘pair’:

-ključivati (-ključuje) ~ -ključiti («)

Common verbs in this family are:

prefix used with meaning

is- A (orig) exclude, switch off

pri- A (dest) join, connect, plug in

u- A (dest) include, switch on

za- A / CC conclude
