Abstract

Finite Verb Formation in Kui contains both inflectional and non inflectional morphemes, Inflectional morphemes stands for Tense -Aspect-mood, Person-Number- Gender etc. There are also used some stem formation depending upon the preceding verbal base and following inflectional Morpheme, but all the grammatical rules of Kui are not much productive. The second thing that may be pointed out that this language seems to be at a first rate of simplification, since some complex features of its phonology and semantics are losing their ground perhaps due to less frequent use and due to the influence of neighboring languages. This is evident from the difficulties and inconsistency in determining the proper meaning of some non-inflection morphemes. The case may be due to the rapid change of socio-economic, socio-political, educational and cultural values of Kondas because of their exposure to the modern Civilization. No doubt Kui is a very beautiful language.
