====Inflection====

The following forms are used when the predicate is definite. The interrogative forms below also serve as tag questions for copular sentences:

{{Gloss/indexable|phrase = {{rtl|~~כאַ~~ אך ףיאך ע, אן ע.}}|translit = ~~Cha~~ ach fiech e, ăn e? |IPA = /χa əχ fiəχ ɛ, ~~ən ɛ~~/ | morphemes = cha cim fiech e ăn e | gloss = NEG.COP anything_but raven 3SG.M, Q 3SG.M| translation = It's just a raven, isn't it?|index=3}}

{{Gloss/indexable|phrase = {{rtl|כאַן אך ףיאך אחד ע, אַן ע.}}|translit = Chan ach fiech ehăd e, an e? |IPA = /χan əχ fiəχ 'ehəd e, 'an e/ | morphemes = cha cim fiech ehăd e ăn e | gloss = NEG.COP anything_but raven one 3SG.M, Q 3SG.M| translation = It's just one raven, isn't it?|index=3}}

(Both clauses have falling intonation, as in Scottish Gaelic!)

* present affirmative: mișă tüsă șe și șni șîvșă șîd

** also used for "yes" (for a copula sentence)

* present interrogative: ăn + mișă tüsă e i șni îvșă îd

* present interrogative: ăn mișă, ăn tüsă, an e, an i, ăn șni, ăn îvșă, an îd

* present negative: chamșă, chatsă, chan e, chan i, cha șni, chavșă, chan îd

** also used for "no" (for a copula sentence)
