The names of binyamin are the forms the verb פעל would take in these binyamin.
 
==NIPAL==
 
NIPAL has the following meanings:
*reflexive;
*passive;
*passive with potentiality;
*(seldom) a change in a state of a subject;
*(seldom) mutual act.
 
In perfect to NIPAL verbs is added the prefix נ.
 
Imperfect is the same as imperfect of PAAL.
 
In imperative and infinitive is added the prefix ה.
 
The participle of NIPAL is formed adding the prefix נ to the root. The singular feminine participle usually has ה at the end but sometimes ת instead.
 
Absolute infinitive of NIPAL is formed adding the prefix נ and the letter ו between the second and the third letter of the root and either נ or ה as a prefix.
 
In perfect of 1-נ verbs the נ of the prefix and of the root are merged (remains only one נ).
 
In all forms of NIPAL the first י in a root is replaced with ו.
 
In NIPAL of empty verbs (including participles) the second letter is not omitted.
 
Double verbs in NIPAL have one instead of two (idenitical) letters in verbs (including participles).
 
3-weak verbs are declined similar to 3-weak verbs in PAAL.
 
==PIEL and PUAL==
 
These verbs are often formed from an adjective (meaning the action which makes this adjective to come true) or from nouns.
 
PIEL derived from PAAL usually mean cause to make some action. For example למד in PIEL means “to teach” (while למד in PAAL means “to learn”).
 
Sometimes PIEL means an action more intense than the corresponding PAAL.
 
The PIEL verbs (not including participles) are the same in form as PAAL verbs.
 
Infinitive consists of three letters of the root. In absolute infinitive it is added ו between the second and the third letter of the root, but instead of absolute infinitive it is often used simply infinitive.
 
PIEL participle is formed adding the prefix מ to the root. The singular feminine participle often has the suffix ה instead of ת:
 
{| class="grammar"
! !! singular !! plural
|-
| masculine || (none) || ים
|-
| feminine || ה || ות
|}
 
Double verbs are declined in PIEL like regular verbs.
 
3-weak verbs are declined similar to 3-weak verbs in PAAL both in perfect and imperfect.
 
1-י and 1-נ are declined in PIEL like regular verbs.
 
PUAL is the passive of PIEL. PUAL has the same form as PIEL.
