Monodirectional verbs are used when there's movement in a single direction, or when the destination is the focus of the verb:

* ''jāyim tarlāmahui fliven'' - the girl walks to school.

* ''keikui vasau'' - I went to the park [using a vehicle].

* ''liliā ñæltai kitui jaje janāyų iliha'' - my sisters have swum home in the igarapé from the port.

This last example shows all three cases used for location complements: dative (in lative use) for directions (= ''tarlāmahui'', ''keikui'', ''kitui''), locative for where the action takes place (''jaje''), and ablative for origins (''janāyų'').

Multidirectional verbs have different uses:

* Generic or habitual actions:

** ''jāyim tarlāmahui peithė'' - the girl regularly walks to school.

** ''saminą liliā ñæltai jaje lærṣāli'' - when they were children, my sisters regularly swam in the igarapé.

* Movement inside a specific location (in locative case, or expressed through locative trigger voice), without any specified direction:

** ''marte peithamui'' - we walk around the city.

** ''jaja lærṣėpan'' - as for the igarapé, someone is swimming in there.

* Gnomic or potential meanings:

** ''gūṇai mordhyąt'' - birds [can] fly.

** ''spragnyæh lalāruṇai tarvė lilu en nanū dårbhyątça'' - large lalāruṇai can carry more than three people.

* (in the aorist or perfect) completed movements: movement to a place and then returning back.

** ''liliā buneya galiākinu mordhitь'' - my older sister went to Galiākina by plane [and came back].

** ''liliā buneya galiākinu mudhitь'' - my older sister went to Galiākina by plane [but she's still there {or at least she was at the time relevant to the topic}].

In auxiliary constructions, monodirectional verbs are never used as habituals (infinitive + ''ñeaʔake''), while multidirectional ones are never used as progressives (p.part + ''gyake''):

* ''liliā buneya galiākinu mordhake ñeaʔitь'' - my older sister regularly went to Galiākina by plane.

* ''liliā buneya galiākinu mudhakyąça mitь'' - my older sister was flying to Galiākina.
