i see this as completely regular for this case. T is doubled, so the dagesh is
forced, hence yod drops.
modern hebrew would have HEMAT(E)TEM (as alternative to HARAGTEM), but HAMITEM
is completely within BH grammar.
----------------------------------------------
1 sam 2:25:
MWT (hifil, infinitive) + suffix -AM --> L-HMYT-AM
(no dagesh).
this too is completely regular for this case! T is not doubled, so no
dagesh is necessary, so yod does not drop.

Assunto: Re: [b-hebrew] Someone knows?
Notice that in all these examples, to wit: qamtem, sartem, v'nastem,
(all, by the way, with a "delayed" dagesh in the T), the performer of
the act is also the receiver of the act. In HAMITEM of Nm. 17:6 the
perpetrators of the act MWT are MO$EH and AHARON, while its
"beneficiaries" are the people of Israel.
[b-hebrew] someone knows? HMT,
