There are also classes of peculiarities in Ch, many of tliem synUictical ; e.g. omission of tlie relative ; -=-n for the relative ; iiv; -lyp and other such repetitions with ), in a distributive 8en.se : mVj^s and other temporal inf. phrases at beginning of sentence (for older ni^j? '^i;!, etc.) ; and particu- larly the use of prepositions : — 'j c. inf. with cir- cumstantial force, at the end of sentences, as 1 Ch 15'" etc. ; ) c. inf. denoting purpose, etc. ; ) as the accusative sign after a verbal suffix, e.g. 1 Ch 5'^, and without a preceding suHix 2 Ch 26'* ; D^- -ij-iV \DV3 T 1 Chl6''.2Ch8"31"; ]-v\ = without, e.g. ICli 22*. 2 Ch 14" ; i'^'^^without f 2 Ch 15»' >• » ; Sbl)= wholly, namely, e.g. 1 Ch 13' etc. ; ) and (oft.) -S;^, carrying on another preposition ('jrV. cy, etc.), or introducing a nominativ* 1 Ch 26-'« 28'- " 29« ; tlie curious coniliination if^, in nj'iB'Ki^i.^^ f 1 Ch 15", and •■y;^ T 2 Ch Sit" ; the frequent and not«worthy ) ly before both verbs and nouns, e.g. 1 Ch 28'-*', 2 Ch 16" 36" ; ? of accompaniment, without a verb, 1 Ch 16' etc. ; ? before adverbs, e.g. dkiipj 2 Ch 29" ; and others (see esp. Driver, LOT 604-606).
The peculiar and often anomalous phraseology of Ch, which is apparent in every oliaptcr, iniiy be further illustrated by the following specimens chosen almost at random : —
