THE yASSIVE FORMS

(a) The normal rule is to change the final a of the stem` to ibwap or ebwa with a modified form in iddwa or eddwa (occasionally ibb777e.g.

Kola gives kolebwa = be done Modified form koleddwa or kolebbwa.

Bala gives Balibwa = be counted Modified baliddwa or balibbwa.

(b) (i) Verbs ending in ira or'era (mainly prepositional form) change the final a to way e.g.

Buulira becomes buulirwa modified form buuliddwa Kolera becomes kolerwa modified form koleddwa

(ii) Verbs ending in may bat pa and some ending in la or ra form their passive in a similar manner, expect that the may ba, and pa stems must revert to the full form in the modified formation, e.g.

Lubala (Warn), gives labulwa mod*fied form labudrlwa Tama (disgust, sicken)-gives tarawa (be tired of) . modifi form tamiddwa (A Laba.gives labwa labibwa modified form labiddwa

(e) Verbs ending in Nya, Mya, or Pya change the final a into izibwa or ezebwa, e.g. Ov Saasanya (scatter) gives saasanyizibwa modified form saasanyizibbwo.

Noonya gives noonyezebwa modified. form noonyezeddwa.

After the passive, the agent is expressed by the si*e noun, but the instrument has usually na before it. e.g.

Omuyizzi'yattibwa embogo. The hunter was killed by a buffalo.

Onusota gwattibwa nlomuggo. The snakeivas killed with a stick. 13 9 LESSON 7

PARTICLES OF TIME

i) LWE (when, with reference to particular day) built on LU and parti cle E. "LWE" is the Relative agreeing with "Olunaku" (day) either stated or understood. Its literal meaning, therefore, is "The day on which", e.g.

ii) BWE (when) built on BU and particle E. "BWE" is the Object Rela tive agreeing with "Obudde" (tine of day) either stated or understood. Literally, therefore, it means PTho time of day on which". But it is less specific than "LWE", e.g. 1. Emmere bwteggya ombulira. Tell me when the food is ready.

2. Kintulwe yava e Buddo n1 agenda e Magonga. When Kintti left Buddo he went to Magonga, iii) OKUTUUSA IRE, (until or till) built on LU and particle E. "Okutuusa lwe" in the and Imperative is followed by the Future Tense, e.g. 1. Linda okutuusa lwe nnajja. - Wait till I come. 20 Yakola okutuusa lwe yakoowa. (past tense) H4 worked till he was tired.

iv) BUII LWE, (whenever) built on LU and particle E. e.g. Buli lwe tugenda e Kampala enkuba etonnya. Whenever we go to Kampala it rains.

2. Bull lwe tusobya tubonerezebwa. Whenever we make mistakes we are Punished.

v) The subjunctive of MALA (while) e.g. 1. Linda tumald okulya. Wait while we finish eating.

:I 6 12 LESSON 10

COMPARISON OP ADJECTIVES

There are no words in Luganda parallel to the English "better-- than" yet there is no lack of words expressing comparison. Comparison is expressed:

(i) By the words Kwenkana (to be equal) followed,, by either an abstract noun formed on an or by an , e.g.

1. OmWana ono yenkana ntoyo ohukulu.

e This child is the same age as that one.

2. Essanduuko eno yenkana nteyiyo okuzitowa. This box is as heavy as yours.

(ii) By the verb Okusina ( to surpass) followed by eitheran abstract noun formed on an adjectift or byan infinitive, e,g, 1. Yokana asinga Paula obuwanvu. John is taller than Paul (lit. John surpasses Paulin height,)

2, Namusoke adinea Namukasa okuwanCiika. NamusokB writes better than Namukada. L "KUSINGA" may be preceded by the Emphatic for greater emphasis, e.g. 1. Mukasa ytasinga Kapere okuvuga eggaali. Mukasa is a better cyclist than Kapere. 2. Ekitabo kino.kye kisinga ekyo ekunyuma. This book is more interesting that that one.

(iii) By the Root -MU (one in the dinular, and sone in the , but which means 'same°, c.g 1. Entebe eno ytenu nteyo: .This chair is the sane as that (one),

2. Daum° guno ewe guru na guli," This stick is the same as that.

There is a further use of -MU, cog,

1. Ku niti gin.° eginu nirungi egimu mibi. Sone of those trees are good, dome are bad. 2.Abalensi bano_abanu-bayonjo, abarntsi -bayonjo; Sone of these boys'are clean, done.are not.

17 .13

The Superative

The superative is expressed by the use of the verb tkusingat (to surpass) followed by the i.601 .-NNA (ail) and the abstract noun or the infinitive, e.g.

1. Omulenzi ono asinga bonny okuwandiika. Thisboy'is the best of all in writing.

2. Ennyunba eno ylesinga zonna obulungi. This house is the most beautiful of all.

Sometimes the Prepositional form of Kusinga, i.e., tkusingirat and the intensive word Iddala, are used, 0,g. 1. MusOke ylasingira ddala ekisa. Musoke is the kindest of then all (there is no question about it).

2. Amagi ylemmere esingira ddala obulungi. Egg are .the best food.
