Very often this construction is avoided and ''skule'' is simply used in its present tense:

If the same construction of the present perfect is used with the auxiliary inflected to past or future, then two new tenses are formed: the past perfect and the future perfect. The former is used to talk about past happenings that ended before another past happening; the latter is used to talk about future happenings that will end before another future happening, ex.:

* ''Hwonne tů skal onhipe, y skal hå ijonded'' - As you'll return, I will have finished.

It has already been said that the present subjunctive is used to report words said by others, even if this words were said in the past, ex.:

Irregular verbs have got a regular present subjunctive, except for the irregular verbs with a root vowel ''u'': in this case the ''u'' becomes ''i'':

!'''Skå'''

!'''Hå'''

!'''Wille'''

!'''tů'''

!'''Kunne'''

!'''Mote'''

!'''Mune'''

!'''Skule'''

!'''Durre'''

In this case the future is used with the inversion of verb and subject.

* ''Tů skal do het.'' / ''Tů tjarf do het.'' - You have to do it. / You need to do it.

The use of the future of indicative and of the present of subjunctive with the other persons are called exhortation form. Some examples with other persons:

* ''Gå we to se lerstof.'' - Let's go to the school.  

In both these constructions the verb precedes the subject.

To give a suggestion this construction can be avoided and substituted for ''skule + infinitive'', in this case the verb precedes the subject:

* '''Hejl's''' - ''Hello'', it's informal;

* '''Go merjen''' - ''Good morning'', it's used more or less till 10 a.m.;

* '''Go dag''' - ''Good morning'', it's used between 10 a.m. and 02 p.m.;

The year is divided into two '''jårtyd''' (= seasons) - '''Winter''', winter, and '''Sumor''', summer. In the past '''Herfst''' (= autumn) and '''Lent''' (= spring) were considered to be the half of the true season, whose name could indicate both the entire season and the first half of it:

|''Tyfsdag''

|''Wojnsdag''

|Day of '''Tůr''' (god of thunder)

|Day of '''Fryo''' (goddess of love and sex)

In Tjoc calendar there are ten important holidays, that come from the Celtic and Anglo-Saxon pagan festivals (the main ones are in bold):

* '''23th''' or '''24th Jola - Wintersoljet''' = Winter solstice (2nd winter festival);

* '''8th''' or '''9th Lyta - Sumorsoljet''' = Summer solstice (2nd summer festival);
