Only one problem here - the verb prefix {jI-} ("I - no object") is used when
there is no object. It can be used when you are describing yourself:
{jIghung} "I am hungry"

Or when there could be an object, but it isn't mentioned:
{jIHaD} "I study (in general)"

However, if you are studying *something specific*, then you want the prefix
that means "I - he/she/it/them". If you check your list of prefixes, you'll
find that what you want is {vI-}.
