The non-finite verbal forms are:
Basic interrogative pronouns display two different roots:

*<small>''quality'':</small> '''ṫjejm-'''
It is regarded as the citation form of the verb, and it is not conjugated in person or number. It has, however, a present and a past form, this last formed through the augment. It can take the modal infixes, thus forming a subjunctive and a conditional form.
*<small>''quantity'':</small> '''sjowp-'''


{| class="wikitable"
When taking a noun role, the root is usually expanded by the nominal suffix '''-e-'''.

The infinitive is a nominal form of a verb. It is used as a verbal noun in sentences, but it cannot be declined as a normal noun; a declension is possible only through the prepositive article. It is regarded as a 2<sup><small>nd</small></sup> class noun.
'''ṫjejm-''' → '''ṫjejm-''' + '''-e-''' → '''ṫjejme'''
<small>''interr.'' → ''what?, who?''</small>  


In its indicative form it is often used as object of modal and auxiliary verbs, while the subjunctive and the conditional forms are mostly used in dependent clauses.
When taking an adjective role, the root is usually expanded by the adjectival suffix '''-i-'''.


======Participle======
'''ṫjejm-''' → '''ṫjejm-''' + '''-i-''' → '''ṫjejmi'''
There are two participial forms, the ''active participle'', and the ''passive participle''. They are used primarily in verbal conjugation, but they can also have an adjectival role, adjoining a noun and pointing to an active or passive role of such noun in the action.
<small>''interr.'' → ''which?''</small> 


The '''active participle''' is formed through the ending -íðə, while the '''past participle''' through the ending -uɣi. They have a present and a past form, this last formed through the augment.
As pronouns, these forms display a complete declension, in which the case forms according to the animacy of the referred noun.

The quality root can refer freely to either animate or inanimate entities. A distinction of animacy can be inferred by the context or by choice of case forms. However, some declined forms can acquire new interrogative meanings depending on the selected case:

* '''ṫjejmeʈu''': where (<small>motion toward</small>)
* '''ṫjejmeno ''': why (<small>cause</small>)


Numerose sono le forme irregolari, specialmente dovute all’aggiunta dell’aumento. L’aumento infatti può fondersi con la radice verbale, alterandola significativamente.
These forms, while broadly undefined in their meaning, are usually specified by using the interrogative adjective with other generic or specific nouns:
lîβam
presente passato
attivo lîβíðə êβíðə
passivo lîβuɣi êβuɣi


Il participio attivo è una forma verbale aggettivale che si usa insieme ad un nome per indicare che svolge attivamente un’azione. Il participio passivo è una forma verbale aggettivale che si usa insieme ad un nome per indicare che subisce passivamente un’azione.
* '''ṫjejmewa weʡewa''': in which place (<small>static location</small>)
Quando vengono utilizzati nella coniugazione verbale, i participi sono indeclinabili, mentre quando sono usati come forme aggettivali vengono accompagnati dall’articolo prepositivo e rispettano le regole degli aggettivi.
* '''ṫjejmeʈu weʡeʈu''': in which place (<small>motion toward</small>)

Interrogative pronouns

Basic interrogative pronouns display two different roots:

  • quality: ṫjejm-
  • quantity: sjowp-

When taking a noun role, the root is usually expanded by the nominal suffix -e-. 

ṫjejm- → ṫjejm- + -e- → ṫjejme
interr. → what?, who?

When taking an adjective role, the root is usually expanded by the adjectival suffix -i-. 

ṫjejm- → ṫjejm- + -i- → ṫjejmi
interr. → which?

As pronouns, these forms display a complete declension, in which the case forms according to the animacy of the referred noun.

instrumental

locative
 ṫjejmewa ṫjejmejwa sjowpewa sjowpejwa

The quality root can refer freely to either animate or inanimate entities. A distinction of animacy can be inferred by the context or by choice of case forms. However, some declined forms can acquire new interrogative meanings depending on the selected case:

  • ṫjejmewa: where (static location)
  • ṫjejmeʈu: where (motion toward)
  • ṫjejmeno : why (cause)

These forms, while broadly undefined in their meaning, are usually specified by using the interrogative adjective with other generic or specific nouns:

  • ṫjejmewa weʡewa: in which place (static location)
  • ṫjejmeʈu weʡeʈu: in which place (motion toward)
