 As in our Neo-Arabic, the passive is formed by using verb stems that have ''n-'' or ''t-''.
-The tense system of Midhirian resembles that of Scottish Gaelic (with respect to diachronics too). Verbal nouns, inherited from Arabic, are used for Insular Celtic-style tense constructions:
-* the present is formed by using ''fi'' 'in, at' + verbal noun. This has displaced the Arabic nonpast forms from the present tense, and the inherited Arabic nonpast is now used for the future and subjunctive. (A similar process occurred in Scottish Gaelic, Welsh and Hebrew.)
-* the perfect is formed with ''be{{3}}d'' 'after' + verbal noun
-* Modals still use the nonpast form like in Arabic: ''Pràinn tgìbw airtcwm!'' 'You really need to watch out!'
 TAMs (for non-stative verbs):
-* Present: ''èn fi cetb'' 'I write; I am writing', ''èn fi cetbwh'' 'I am writing it'
+* Present: ''ganectib'' 'I write, am writing'
-* Present habitual: ''ncw&#768;n fi cetb'' 'I usually write'
+* Present habitual: ''ncw&#768;n nectib'' 'I usually write'
 * Past or conditional: ''ctebtin'' 'I wrote'
-* Past or conditional imperfect: ''cwntin fi cetb'' 'I was writing'
+* Past or conditional imperfect: ''cwntin nectib'' 'I was writing'
 * Future or subjunctive: ''nectib'' 'I will write; that I write'
-* Recent past: ''èn beȝd ctib '' 'I have written'
 * Imperative: ''wctib!'' 'write!'
