Vethari has some irregular verbs. They have special forms for the present, past and future. Two of them are very important verbs; Suri (to be) and Gusu (to have), also, they are the only one that don’t end in the normal -ku ending. When they are used as auxiliary verbs, they ignore the different affixes and uses the normal ones.
