 +===== Side note: Suppletion ===== 
 +Some verbs have suppletive forms. In the Slovenian base, these are marked with 1 in the Root allomorphy (y/n) column, but in the Root allomorphy (list) column, we list the infinitive, 1sg./pl. present tense form and the l-participle. E.g., //biti// ‘to be’ has the forms: //biti//, //sem/je//, //bil//.
