IMPERSONAL VERBS.
The Preterite Affirmative of Neuter Verbs, and the Future of the Negative or Interrogative Mood of Active Verbs,
are often used impersonally ; as, ghuileadh, buailear, yluaisear, faicear, faighear. Any verb used in this way may be
dechned with tlie compound pronoun lea7ii, through all its persons ; yet it is not accounted so elegant to express the
pronoun, as to leave it to be supplied according to the sense of the context. The impersonal verbs are used after this
manner.
