 ===Verbs===
-Peshpeg verbs consist of an inflected auxiliary usually followed by a verbal noun, although the verbal noun may precede the auxiliary.  Only particles may occur between the verbal noun and auxiliary, and even then this phenomenon occurs rather infrequently, restricted to a closed set of discourse particles, such as emphatic ''ladi'', or time adverbials, such as ''peldak'' "immediately".
+Peshpeg verbs are divided into two classes, compound verbs, and synthetic verbs.  Compound verbs consist of an inflected auxiliary usually followed by a verbal noun, although the verbal noun may precede the auxiliary.  In contrast, synthetic verbs encode all verbal inflections on the verb root itself. Of these two classes, the compound verbs are the predominant class.
-The auxiliary developed from the fusion of a bound pronominal marker to the connective particle ''mon'', ultimately derived from the Minhast connective ''min''.  This complex in turn is attached to the locative suffix ''-bi''<sup>1</sup>, plus a tense-aspect marker.  The verbal noun contains the semantic content of the verb phrase.
+====Compound Verbs====
+The auxiliary of compound verbs developed from the fusion of a bound pronominal marker to the connective particle ''mon'', possibly derived from the Minhast connective ''min''.  This complex in turn is attached to the locative suffix ''-bi''<sup>1</sup>, plus a tense-aspect marker.  The verbal noun contains the semantic content of the verb phrase.
