			To indicate that something is being done to someone else or being
			done for someone else, you take the <strong><em>past
					tense</em></strong> form and add one of the following special “doing for”
			endings.

		<div class="Indented">
			<i>You should only use pronouns that indicate animate to animate
				relationships when using this ending.</i>
		</div>
		<div class="Description">

		<div>These endings are also used to indicate “something bad
			happening by an unspecified actor to people” when used with verbs
			that indicate or could indicate something negative happening.</div>
