Please can you explain "vetitive". I (a native English speaker) have
never heard this word, and it is not in my large English dicionary.
Neither is it in the index of GKC, nor, from a quick glance, in the
sections on the construction in question, so it can hardly be a
standard term in Hebrew grammar.
