Conjugation of a regular verb (with examples of auxiliary and irregular verbs)
Sample verb: ránosam, to breastfeed, to nurse, to give suckle
Active diathesis
Indicative mood
Present tense
The present is a simple tense. The personal endings are added to the verbal roots:
| 1st sing. | |
| 2nd sing. | |
| 3rd sing. | |
| 1st plur. | |
| 2nd plur. | |
| 3rd plur. |
In the 3rd singular person, which features the null ending, irregularities may often occur, like dropping or altering the last root consonant:
íméham → ímé to go → he/she/it goes
namíɣam → namík to bite → he/she/it bites
There are, however, a sizeable amount of irregular verbs. Among these verbs the conjugation of the auxiliary verbs tòram, to have, and kiɣam, to come, is shown:
| 1st sing. | ||
| 2nd sing. | ||
| 3rd sing. | ||
| 1st plur. | ||
| 2nd plur. | ||
| 3rd plur. |
The present tense convey ongoing, habitual or gnomic actions or states.
