Re: Strong/weak verbs

I have been following the discussion about strong and weak verbs with
considerable interest because the Urianian verb the way I have it
today is very sketchy and I would like to do quite a bit more work
with it. The Indoeuropean verb is very entertaining material for a
conlanger I think, but I find the rather introductory volumes that I
have at my disposal don't give them the treatment I need. So where do
you go usually to study the Indoeuropean verb in somewhat more detail
(please)?

I have been thinking that the Urianian verb could actually be
simplified because they monophthongised at an early stage, losing
some of the ablaut distinctions. The rest of it might have been lost
due to analogies. Still I think ablaut adds some charm and I think I
will retain these remains now, at last in some dialects, and maybe
add some prenasal raising or similar stuff, taking care to be not to
imitative of course...
