==Morphology==
===Verbs===
Tumacan verbs have two tenses (nonpast and past) and two aspects (imperfective and perfective). The imperfective-perfective distinction is characterized by allomorphy inherited from Old Eevo. (The perfective form derives from adding a prefix, which causes the verb to take the conjunct form. cf. Slavic languages.)


Pronominal suffixes have been lost and tense is marked by prefixes.
