Kukʉp verbs don't use indicative mood (past, present, or future tense). Instead, those details are determined through context.

* Perfect aspect -- uses the word ''''reletʉ'''' before the main verb -- ''"have studied"'' or reletʉ petʉp

* Progressive aspect -- ~~Suffix:~~ '''~~-(i)r~~''' ~~/-(i)ɾ/~~ -- ''"am studying"'' or ~~petʉpir~~

* Progressive aspect -- uses the word ''''tip'''' before the main verb -- ''"am studying"'' or tip petʉp

* Imperative -- ~~Suffix:~~ '''~~-(e)~~ni''' ~~/ɛni/~~ -- ''"study!" (as a command)'' or ~~petʉpeni~~

* Imperative -- uses the word '''' ni' '''' before the main verb -- ''"study!" (as a command)'' or ni' petʉp

* Negation -- ~~Uses~~ the ~~particle~~ '''u'~~'' /u/ before main~~ verb ~~phrase~~

* Negation -- adds the suffix -(ʉ)ho /-(ʉ)hɒ/ to the verb -- ''"do not study"'' or petʉpʉho

**Tense affixes come between the root verb and the progressive affix
