====Verbs====
Nṛtrāṇya verbs inflect for person (1st, 2nd, 3rd), number (singular, plural, or dual — the last only in the 1st and 2nd persons), tense (past and non-past), mood (indicative, subjunctive, and imperative) and voice (active and passive). A number of verbal adjectives and nouns are also made from the verb, notably the present participle (which can also serve as an agent noun) and the past participle, usually with a passive sense.
Verbs are either strong or weak. Strong verbs change both stem and affix in different parts of the paradigm; weak verbs change the affix but leave the stem unchanged. There are four classes of both weak and strong verb; the strong verb classes can be subdivided into various types. The different formations of the strong verb are adequately displayed in the 3rd person singular indicative active, the 3rd sg. perfect active, the 3rd pl. perfect active, and the past participle.
