Note that the imperfect and pluperfect are actually regularly formed with the normal terminations and the stems ''~~haits~~- ''and ''jalʲ-'' respectively. In spoken Laceyiam, the past forms (''høysu, hės...'') are increasingly often used in place of the imperfect ones (''hesāla, hesālað...'').

Note that the imperfect and pluperfect are actually regularly formed with the normal terminations and the stems ''hes- ''and ''jalʲ-'' respectively. In spoken Laceyiam, the past forms (''høysu, hės...'') are increasingly often used in place of the imperfect ones (''hesāla, hesālað...'').

''haiske ''is usually defined as an exterior-only verb, but actually there is a single interior 3rd person singular form which is used in the existential construction. This form always needs the pronoun ''tami ''and an accusative argument. The forms are '''tami jąu''' (present), '''tami hiṣąu '''(past), '''tami hesālten '''(imperfect), '''tami bąmbstąu '''(future), and '''tami jaliauśian '''(pluperfect). An example construction is ''tami ėmīlau jąu ''"there is a tiger", with ''ėmīla ''"tiger" in the accusative case. Note that neither the verb nor the pronoun vary for number, thus "there are tigers" is ''tami ėmīlarau jąu.''
