An invertive verb is a verb form whose meaning "something that begins or originates" is. This meaning is - usually through a bound morfeem - derived from another verb. The inchoative aspect is a separate aspect of verbs.
In many languages like Greek and Latin, inchoativity is a highly productive character. Through an infix, a variety of verbs can be derived from secondary verbs. In Dutch, the most productive element with an inchoative meaning is the prefix: (switch-on, insertion, etc.) Latin
In Latin, in particular, the infix -sc- is an inchoative meaning. This infix is present in many forms of present-day:
In most Romanesque languages (such as Italian) this infix has lost its inchoative meaning. For example, the form fin-isco with such an infix nowadays means nothing more than "I" ends, whereas the inchoative infix is missing in the corresponding plural form fin-iamo, "we terminate". Greek
The Ancient Greek had a similar infix-like meaning. When the trunk of verbs ends on a consonant, -ισκ- is added, when the trunk ends on a vowel, -σκ- is added. Also see
