| ===Conjugation of regular verbs=== | | ===Interrogative pronouns=== |
| Sample verbs: märose, ''to see'' (1<sup><small>st</small></sup> conjugation), pöħuse, ''to establish'' (2<sup><small>nd</small></sup> conjugation), giɕëse, ''to pretend'' (3<sup><small>rd</small></sup> conjugation), hëhɑse, ''to happen, to occur'' (4<sup><small>th</small></sup> conjugation), pɑse, ''to shine'' (5<sup><small>th</small></sup> conjugation).
| | Basic interrogative pronouns display two different roots: |
|
| |
|
| Each conjugation features a typical identifying thematic vowel, which, however, do not recur in the different tenses:
| | *<small>''quality'':</small> '''ṫjejm-''' |
| | *<small>''quantity'':</small> '''sjowp-''' |
|
| |
|
| {|
| | When taking a noun role, the root is usually expanded by the nominal suffix '''-e-'''. |

| The fifth conjugation is regarded as inherently irregular and features no typical thematic vowel. All verbs belonging to this conjugation are irregularly conjugated. The following example for this conjugation is only for illustrative purpose and cannot be take as a proper conjugation template.

| ====Indicative mood====
| |
|
| |
|
| =====Imperfective present tense=====
| | '''ṫjejm-''' → '''ṫjejm-''' + '''-e-''' → '''ṫjejme''' |
| The '''imperfective present''' is a simple tense. The personal endings are added to the imperfective root:
| | <small>''interr.'' → ''what?, who?''</small> |
|
| |
|
| {| class="wikitable"
| | When taking an adjective role, the root is usually expanded by the adjectival suffix '''-i-'''. |

| |
| | |
| The imperfective present tense conveys ongoing, habitual or gnomic actions or states.
| |
| | |
| =====Perfective present/future tense=====
| |

| | <center>meḱākon</center> || <center>ʂeteniəkon</center>
| |

| |
|
| |
|
| The perfective present/future tense conveys completed actions or states, mostly in the future, but also in the immediate present, especially in dependent clauses.
| | '''ṫjejm-''' → '''ṫjejm-''' + '''-i-''' → '''ṫjejmi''' |
| | <small>''interr.'' → ''which?''</small> |
|
| |
|
| =====Imperfective past tense=====
| | As pronouns, these forms display a complete declension, in which the case forms according to the animacy of the referred noun. |
| The '''imperfective past ''' is a simple tense. The augment and the personal endings are added to the imperfective root:

| The imperfective past tense conveys ongoing or habitual actions or states in the past.
| |
| | |
| =====Perfective past tense=====
| |
| The '''perfective past''' is a simple tense. The augment and the personal endings are added to the perfective root:

|
| The past tense conveys completed actions or states in the past. | | 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: |
| | |
| =====Imperfective future tense=====
| |
| The '''imperfective future''' is the only compound tense. It is built with the indicative present forms of the verb ʔəɳəme, ''to be'', with the imperfective present infinitive form of the conjugated verb, placed at the end of the clause:
| |
| | |
| {| class="wikitable"

| |
| |-
| |
| | <center>ʔəɳ māḱekəme</center> || <center>ʔəɳ ʂetenəme</center>
| |
| |-
| |
| | ''<small>1<sup>st</sup> plur.</small>'' || <center>ʔəɳolon māḱekəme</center> || <center>ʔəɳolon ʂetenəme</center>
| |
| |-
| |
| | ''<small>2<sup>nd</sup> plur.</small>'' || <center>ʔəɳeron māḱekəme</center> || <center>ʔəɳeron ʂetenəme</center>
| |
| |-
| |
| | rowspan="2" | ''<small>3<sup>rd</sup> plur.</small>'' || <center>ʔəɳət́on māḱekəme</center> || <center>ʔəɳət́on ʂetenəme</center>
| |
| |-
| |
| | <center>ʔəɳon māḱekəme</center> || <center>ʔəɳon ʂetenəme</center>
| |
| |}
| |
| | |
| The verb ʔəɳəme, in its non-auxiliary function, does not usually display any long form in the 3<sup><small>rd</small></sup> singular person. As an auxiliary it may build the long form according to its adjoining verb.
| |
| | |
| The imperfective future tense conveys ongoing or habitual actions or states in the future.
| |
| | |
| ====Subjunctive mood====
| |
| The '''subjunctive''' mood is mostly used in dependent clauses, in the so-called personal constructions. Its usage in main clauses is quite limited, except for its role as an imperative an exhortative form.
| |
| | |
| The subjunctive widely features the infix -iəɳ-, which is placed between the root and the personal endings. In the imperfective future tense, the infix is placed on the auxiliary verb.

| The subjunctive forms display the same irregularities as their indicative counterparts and follow the same rules.
| |
| | |
| ====Conditional mood====
| |
| The '''conditional''' mood is used to convey wish, desire and probability. It is regularly used both in main and dependent clauses.
| |
| | |
| The subjunctive widely features the infix -oṕ-, which is placed between the root and the personal endings. In the imperfective future tense, the infix is placed on the auxiliary verb.

| |
| | |
| =====Infinitive=====

| |
| | |

| The active participle is an adjectival form of a verb. It is linked to nouns which actively perform an action. As an adjectival form, it displays a complete declension, to agree with the class of the referred noun
| | * '''ṫjejmewa''': where (<small>static location</small>) |
| | * '''ṫjejmeʈu''': where (<small>motion toward</small>) |
| | * '''ṫjejmeno ''': why (<small>cause</small>) |
|
| |
|
| The passive participle is an adjectival form of a verb. It is linked to nouns which undergo an action, or inactively are in a certain state. As an adjectival form, it displays a complete declension, to agree with the class of the referred noun.
| | These forms, while broadly undefined in their meaning, are usually specified by using the interrogative adjective with other generic or specific nouns: |
|
| |
|
| Both participial forms are widely used in relative clauses building.
| | * '''ṫjejmewa weʡewa''': in which place (<small>static location</small>) |
| | * '''ṫjejmeʈu weʡeʈu''': in which place (<small>motion toward</small>) |
