4.5: kamma (the object, ②)
1The ② ending marks the `kamma`, the object: whatever is made, seen, heard or reached {280}, {297}. The same ending measures a time or a distance that an action fills {298}, goes with a governing particle {299} or a "makes someone do" verb {300}, and in a few places stands where another ending is expected {306}–{307}.
8.6: Passive and causative
2`ya` between the root and the ending makes a verb passive, `vuccati` ("is said"), with the doer in ③ {440}–{443}; `e`, `aya`, `āpe` and `āpaya` make it causative, `kāreti` ("makes someone do") {438}, {483}, {523}. What each looks like, and how to tell a causative from a verb of the `cura` class.
