an unrelated question i have is why the spirantization situation for perfect verbs, as Thackston gives it, apparently differs from this paradigm in Greenspahn's Intro to Aramaic.
specifically: why does the 3rd radical ב not have dagesh lene in 1cs kiθveθ & 3fs kiθvaθ?
cf. Syriac keθ/b/eθ, keθ/b/aθ
add a skeleton here at some point
