Hello all,

I have been slowly going through the Dhamma­cakkap­pa­vat­ta­na­sutta. I am very much a beginner.

I have a question about the last item in the specific examples of dukkha:

    yampicchaṃ na labhati tampi dukkhaṃ

It seems to me that the present indicative verb, labhati, is functioning as a noun, where I would have expected an infinitive or a participle acting as gerund. Is this correct? Or am I not parsing the item correctly?

Thanks,

David.
