Infinitive and imperative constructions
The role of the inf. and imp. moods is not clear, given that verbs are supposed to be essentially verbal nouns. Does raazup! mean criticise! or does it mean make there be some criticising (by someone, not nec. you). If it meant the second thing, one could say Ve raazup to mean criticise!
Similar questions surround the infinitive.
Probably a solution is to have a short inflexible form, & a less compact, but more flexible alternative form (as with the relative pronoun).
