Hello everyone! I hope November has been treating you well. Today
we will be learning how to express the completion of our actions.
This requires only two components: the action we are doing and the
verb for beginning/finishing.
In Sinhala, beginning is patan gannavaa/ පටන් ගන්නවා
Finishing is ivaraa/ ඉවරා
Let’s say you wanted to say that you just started eating:
As we have learned in previous lessons, that would be kanavaa/
In this case, we are using the plain form of this verb, which is kanna/
If we put that together:
Mama kanna patan gannavaa.
මම කන්න පටන් ගන්නවා
I am starting to eat.
If we are finishing our meal we can say:
Mama kanna ivaraa.
මම කන්න ඉවරා
I am done eating.
Thanks for reading everyone!
Like always, let me know if you have any questions
