=== Verbs ===
Verbs are constructed as follows: [contextual prefixes]-[root]-[adverbial suffixes]-[inflectional suffixes].
* Contextual prefixes are those of the noun to which the verb is related i.e. Definiteness-negation-class-number
* Root is the stem of the word
* Adverbial suffixes are roots of adverbs that modify the verb such as quality, quantity, size etc.
* Inflectional suffixes tell you the aspect and mood.
==== Aspect ====
Verbs are inflected for time as follows:
{| class="wikitable"
! rowspan="2" |

A periphrastic construction using the modifier -'''mperatur''' in an indicative sentence can have the same semantic effect. For instance, '''Ashamiliya, beBakhilfanya!''' (Assimilate, Packilvanians) is in the indicative mood. '''Bebakhilfanya beashamiliya bemperatur''' (Directly: Packilvanians Assimilate must or indirectly: Packilvanians must assimilate). The latter example is in the indicative mood.
Indicates that the subject of the verb is doing something to itself. The suffix -shalv is used to indicate this. For instance '''bemanjeshalv''' (Eat (themselves)). For example: '''Buwayeet beparlashalv'''. (The man talks to himself) ▼
