==Verbs==
TODO: revamp tenses to get split-ergativity, add evidentiality
 
Unlike Qivattutannguaq, Pestonian is NOT pro-drop.
 
There is a 2x2 tense structure: {non-past, past} x {imperfective, perfective}.
 
Ergativity is used in perfect(ive) tenses. The verb agrees with the noun in the absolutive case, and the ergative subject is marked with ''tar'' 'through' plus the accusative case: ''Tar sin teisedõim.'' 'He will find me.'
 
As in Hebrew and Russian, some tenses are pro-drop but some tenses are not.
 
teised "he finds":
*Non-past imperfective: ja teisia, tu teiser, se/sa/sud teised, am teisim, ju teisid, sir teisud
*Past imperfective: ja teiser, tu teiset, se/sa/sud teiser, am teiseme, ju teisete, sir teiser
*Past perfective: teisedim, teiseder, teiseded, teisedime, teisedite, teisedud
*Future perfective: teisetõim, teisetõir, teisetõid, teisetõime, teisetõite, teisetõjud
 
vinned "he binds":
*Non-past imperfective: ja vinna, tu vinner, se/sa/sud vinned, am vinnam, ju vinned, sir vinnud
*Past imperfective: ja vanner, tu vannet, se/sa/sud vanner, am vanneme, ju vannete, sir vanner
*Past perfective: vandim, vander, vanded, vandime, vandite, vandud
*Future perfective: vantõim, vantõir, vantõid, vantõime, vantõite, vantõjud
 
teepudad "he rules":
*Non-past imperfective: ja teepuda, tu teepudar, se teepudad, am teepudam, ju teepudad, sir teepudud
*Past imperfective: ja teepudar, tu teepudat, se teepudar, am teepudame, ju teepudate, sir teepudar
*Past perfective: teepudadim, teepudader, teepudaded, teepudadime, teepudadite, teepudadud
*Future perfective: teepudatõim, teepudatõir, teepudatõid, teepudatõime, teepudatõite, teepudatõjud
