'''Contextual prefixes and pronomiality'''

Verbs in Packilvanian are prefixed with the same prefixes as their subject. These are called contextual prefixes because they tell you the context of the subject. By extension, verbs in Packilvanian have pronomial properties for the subject. However, they are not marked for case as it is assumed they are always referring to the subject which is always in the nominative case (which is unmarked). For instance, '''bemanje''' means they eat. This means that you do not need the pronoun of the subject to understand who and what is doing the action described by the verb. Thus they are applied in the same order as the nouns as follows (refer to the [[Packilvanian language#Nouns|noun section]] for more info):
{| class="wikitable"
|+
!Negation
!Class
!Number
!Root
|-
|Not
|Type of word
|Number of entities
|Stem of the word
|}

==== Adverbial suffixes ====
Adverbial suffixes are added between the root and the inflectional suffixes. They describe or modify the verb being performed. They must appear in a specific order as indicated in the [[Packilvanian language#Modifiers and descriptors|modifiers and descriptors section]].
