Peter: 2.  secondary tenses not marked by -i

 

Me: Slavic secondary endings ARE marked by *-i, and so are the relicts of athematic present endings in Baltic (Old Lithuanian esmi, essi, esti)!

I meant "primary endings" (so did Peter, unless I misunderstood him). The "secondary" ones are those without *-i (*-m, *-s, *-t, ... *-ont).
