VERB: verb

For Ancient Hebrew, the tag VERB is applied to words which can take aspect morphology, apart from the copula היה, which is tagged AUX.

Additionally, the existentials יש and אין are tagged as VERBs.

If a participle appears with compound morphology (that is, if its arguments are attached with compound:smixut rather than obj) then the tag is changed to NOUN.

כי ידע אלהים כי ביום אכלכם ממנו ונפקחו עיניכם והייתם כאלהים ידעי טוב ורע׃

ki yodeʻa ʼelohim ki beyom ʼakhalkem mimenu ṿenifḳeḥu ʻenekhem ṿihyitem keʼlohim yodʻe ṭov ṿaraʻ

Because God knows that in the day of your eating from it, your eyes will be opened and you will be like God, knowers of good and evil.

No additional features should be marked for VerbForm=Inf.

With VerbForm=Part, there should be values for Gender and Number.
