- F: first root consonant
- C: second root consonant
- L: third root consonant
- (vowel): vowel that is usually dropped unless it violates phonotactics
- Before a suffix beginning in a vowel, the penultimate a in the present and past affirmative is dropped (if possible).

- BUT baddal "he changed" + -ag → baddalag "he changed you" (*baddlag violates phonotactics).
