It is fascinating how you design a strict system to derive EAK verbs
from Ancient Greek -- in my Terkunan, I currently decide this ad-hoc
for each verb, looking at the Latin forms. It seems it might be a
good idea for me, too, to think this deeply about the derivation
process, because indeed, I faced cases where I wasn't sure and my
choice seemed arbitrary and unsatisfactory.
And by your system, you manage to find the essence of the verb -- the
typical stem you have in mind for a given verb in Greek. At least it
works quite well for me. Very well done indeed!
