The Middle Voice: -μι verbs in the Imperfect Tense

34.9 The following –μι verbs all form the IMPERFECT MIDDLE regularly, according to the following rules:

• Short stem vowels are used for all stems
• The intervocalic σ in the 2nd person singular does NOT drop out (S 744, G 372-374). This same phenomenon happens with the Present Middle of these –μι verbs (i.e., δίδοσαι, τίθεσαι, ἵστασαι, and ἵεσαι)
