Verbs have the structure: '''Preverbal particle-Indirect object prefix-Agent prefix-TAM prefix-Derivation prefix-Stem-Derivation suffix-TAM suffix-Personal suffix''' | |||
Not all components have to present in a given verb form. | |||
====Preverbal particles==== | |||
====Personal affixes==== | |||
There are three kinds of personal affixes, each with its designated position in the verb form. They are (in order of appearance): | |||
#'''Indirect object prefixes''': represent verbal arguments in the dative, ablative, locative, and/or instrumental cases. | |||
#'''Agent prefixes''': represent verbal argument in the ergative case. | |||
#'''Personal suffixes''': represent verbal argument in the absolutive case. There are two types of personal suffixes, depending on the tense and mood: | |||
##'''Primary personal suffixes:''' equivalent to corresponding possessive suffixes. | |||
##'''Secondary personal suffixes:''' equivalent to corresponding copulative suffixes. | |||
