Suffix conjugation
The inflection code in the case of verbal suffix conjugation is made up of two elements: 1) the number of the verbal form + 2) the number of the suffix pronoun. The numbers of the verbal forms are, for example, the following:
10000 -> suffix conjugation
11000 -> prefixed suffix conjugation
10020 -> suffix conjugation, active form of the unmarked stem
10040 -> suffix conjugation, passive form of the unmarked stem
10100 -> suffix conjugation, active form of the geminated stem
10120 -> suffix conjugation, passive form of the geminated stem
The numbers for the suffixes run from 1 to 9, as attributed to each pronoun. Inflected verbs with a nominal subject get the number "0".
jri̯.n=f is encoded as "10384", which is a combination of "10380" and "4".
"10380" stands for "suffix conjugation, active n-form of the unmarked stem"
"4" stands for a 3rd p. sg. m. pronoun "f"
