c4.76

The forms most distinctly calling for the admission of a root-form ī are, in the older language, ímahe v.B. (common in RV.), īyām and īyāta and īyus B.U., īyáná SV. (all single occurrences); in the later language, -ita, iti, -īya (all rare or sporadic). The present-stem íya is improperly called intensive.
