Greetings

I am using Kittel, Hoffer and Wright. I am getting a little concerned about
the terminology. What do you sugguest beginning students need to know about
terminology? For example:

1. Prefix or imperfect form.

2. Affix or perfect form.

3. Qal Piel or D, D2, etc.

What is the most appropriate way to describe the differences in terms,
(aspect and stem names,etc.) to beginning students?

4. Should the traditional labels for stems be kept, or is there enough
reasons to accept the newer labels? Could someone provide me a list of
those labels?

Thanks
