<i>Er</i> is used only in the context of 'to be', not as an auxiliary verb, as in English 'I am writing'. In Alska this would be <i>Jeg skriver</i>, NOT <i>Jeg er ett skrive</i>.

The verb+e version of the infinitive can appear after a modal verb. | <i>Er</i> is used only in the context of 'to be', not as an auxiliary verb, as in English 'I am writing'.
