Author: User:Benwing, from early version by User:Atitarev, User:ZxxZxxZ

Todo:

1. Finish unimplemented conjugation types. Only IX-final-weak left (extremely
   rare, possibly only one verb اِعْمَايَ (according to Haywood and Nahmad p. 244,
   who are very specific about the irregular occurrence of alif + yā instead
   of expected اِعْمَيَّ with doubled yā). Not in Hans Wehr.
2. Implement irregular verbs as special cases and recognize them, e.g.
   -- laysa "to not be"; only exists in the past tense, no non-past, no
	  imperative, no participles, no passive, no verbal noun. Irregular
	  alternation las-/lays-.
   -- istaḥā yastaḥī "be ashamed of" -- this is complex according to Hans Wehr
	  because there are two verbs, regular istaḥyā yastaḥyī "to spare
	  (someone)'s life" and irregular istaḥyā yastaḥyī "to be ashamed to face
	  (someone)", which is irregular because it has the alternate irregular
	  form istaḥā yastaḥī which only applies to this meaning. Currently we
	  follow Haywood and Nahmad in saying that both varieties can be spelled
	  istaḥyā/istaḥā/istaḥḥā, but we should instead use a variant= param
	  similar to حَيَّ to distinguish the two possibilities, and maybe not
	  include istaḥḥā.
   -- ʿayya/ʿayiya yaʿayyu/yaʿyā "to not find the right way, be incapable of,
	  stammer, falter, fall ill". This appears to be a mixture of a geminate
	  and final-weak verb. Unclear what the whole paradigm looks like. Do
	  the consonant-ending parts in the past follow the final-weak paradigm?
	  Is it the same in the non-past? Or can you conjugate the non-past
	  fully as either geminate or final-weak?
   -- اِنْمَحَى inmaḥā or يمَّحَى immaḥā "to be effaced, obliterated; to disappear, vanish"
	  has irregular assimilation of inm- to imm- as an alternative. inmalasa
	  "to become smooth; to glide; to slip away; to escape" also has immalasa
	  as an alternative. The only other form VII verbs in Hans Wehr beginning
	  with -m- are inmalaḵa "to be pulled out, torn out, wrenched" and inmāʿa
	  "to be melted, to melt, to dissolve", which are not listed with imm-
	  alternatives, but might have them; if so, we should handle this generally.
3. Implement individual override parameters for each pardigm part. See
   Module:fro-verb for an example of how to do this generally. Note that
   {{temp|ar-conj-I}} and other of the older templates already had such
   individual override params.

Irregular verbs already implemented:

   -- [ḥayya/ḥayiya yaḥyā "live" -- behaves like a normal final-weak verb
	  (e.g. past first singular ḥayītu) except in the past-tense parts with
	  vowel-initial endings (all the third person except for the third feminine
	  plural). The normal singular and dual endings have -yiya- in them, which
	  compresses to -yya-, with the normal endings the less preferred ones.
	  In masculine third plural, expected ḥayū is replaced by ḥayyū by
	  analogy to the -yy- parts, and the regular form is not given as an
	  alternant in John Mace. Barron's 201 verbs appears to have the regular
	  ḥayū as the part, however. Note also that final -yā appears with tall
	  alif. This appears to be a spelling convention of Arabic, also applying
	  in ḥayyā (form II, "to keep (someone) alive") and 'aḥyā (form IV,
	  "to animate, revive, give birth to, give new life to").] -- implemented
