| Expresses general truths (e.g. "It rains during the rainy season").  Considered as a tense or aspect (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gnomic_aspect), TA-marking is null.  This aspect is replaced by the Imperfect and/or Habitual affixes in some Upper Minhast dialects; in other dialects, marking is simply absent, i.e. the default Present Perfect is used.
