'''trān-''' ('''trā-''' before voiced stops, nasals, or '''r'''; it combines with a following ''y'' to form ''trāñ-'') forms verbs of repetition or continuative actions, or "to keep X-ing"; verbs with ''ṛ'' always have ''ar'' and are non-ablauting:

Reduplication (with one coda consonant and basic vowel) with diachronic lengthening and '''-ve(y)-''' (''-vi(y)-'' in the past tense) forms frequentative verbs. The resulting verbs can't be conjugated in the perfect.<br/>Due to the common use of this form in modern Chlouvānem, some grammarians consider it as an inflectional category instead of a derivation. Note though that this does not apply for motion verbs, as the multidirectional ones are already understood to be frequentative.
* ''dṛ-'' (to do) → ''dadarve-'' (to repetitively do)
* ''na-gya-'' (to happen) → ''nagigyave-'' (to keep happening)<ref>The verb "to happen" does not exist as an iterative.</ref>
* ''tvorg-'' (to fear) → ''tvartveirgve-'' (to fear over and over again)
