neutropassive

It will terrify linguists among ourselves to be told that this Slav language which the Germans despise as barbarous , which has scarcely any literature , and which is spoken by very few men of high education — possesses, in addition to our ordinary verbs, also verbs “neutropassive," "inchoative," "durative," "momentaneous," and "iterative"; an aorist, like greek, and a preterite aorist of its own; a subjunctive pluperfect, and in declension seven cases, including a "sociative" case, and a "locative."
