Monday August 14th 2000 years Today's lesson will be based on the classificatory verb "to have". In an earlier lesson we discussed how classificatory verbs work. If you remember, there are five different types of classificatory verbs, which include the lump, limp, rigid, liquid and animate forms. The verb must correlate with the object in question. oday we are going work with the lump form that includes all objects that are round or that have no definite shape. This includes items such as a rock, pear, apple, cup and (Da-gwa-le-lu) which is the Cherokee word for car. I have given you several sentences that include the first person (I), second person (you) and the third person, which includes (he, she or it). You will also get some adjectives describing the car. I have a car. Da-gwa-le-lu ha-gi-ha Formal Da-gwa-le-l ha-gi-ha Conversational car I have I have a new car.
