There are 2 past tenses in Puhval, past imperfective and pluperfect. | |||
* Past Imperfective - Used when the action was ongoing, repeated, and/or habitual in the past. To apply the past imperfective tense, add the helping verb "Kazlz" (To Do) in it's conjugated form, prior to the primary verb dropping the "lz" and adding "ú". Ex, "Mek kazl datʼemú", (J'ai (helping verb 1st person form) parlé) or (I talked). | |||
* | * Pluperfect - Used when talking about a event in the past that has ended. To apply the pluperfect tense, add the helping verb "Kazlz" (To Do) in it's conjugated form, and add, to the primary verb, the suffix(es) "Kré" if the subject is animate or "Dré" if the subject is inanimate, dropping the "lz" infinitive suffix. Ex, "Vek jadas fadítʼev kazd jadlz, vek kazd fajaké", (Après tu avais bu d'eau, tu a dormi) or (After you drank water, you slept). | ||
