 Still, we tried to capture what we believe is the common core of all the related verbs. The material in the cell ‘Root’ therefore refers to the verb without prefixes, thematic vowels or verbal affixes.
+Note that verbs that display suppletion between the perfective and imperfective form are annotated as having different roots. In cases where the suppletive form is related to another existing verb (//oditi// ‘to go away.pfv’, //odhajati// ‘to go away.ipfv’ where //haj// has the same root as //hoditi// ‘to walk’) the suppletive form and the related verb are marked as having the same root (in this case //h-d//, see below for hyphen).

 **Plus** \\
-While we remove any strictly verbal material (prefixes, TV, suffixes) from the verb when annotating the ‘root’, non-verbal affixes are included in this column and are marked with a plus (+). Plus is also used in compounds (these are also annotated with 1 in the column Compounds).

+**Colon**\\
+In the BCMS Database, the colon mark is used in cases where the annotator has the intuition there is a prefix, but the root reconstructed on this analysis does not appear in other words. e.g. //u:zeti// ‘take’, where //zeti// does not appear in any other verb.
