	Maqbool Ahmad 30th January, 2017 Should تَزُولَا should be be 3rd person dual imperfect verb instead of 2nd?
	Abdul Rahman 31st January, 2017 You are right, it should be tagged as V – 3rd person feminine dual imperfect verb, subjunctive mood. Note that at 35:41:9 we encounter the perfect tense of the same verb, and this is correctly tagged " V – 3rd person feminine dual perfect verb".
