Tigol/Morphology
< Tigol
Tigol is a highly inflected, fusional language, unlike modern Eevo. Much of Proto-Talmic morphology survives in Tigol. However, Tigol is most notorious for its often unpredictable verbal allomorphy.

Object prefixes are inherited from Proto-Quihum and are placed in a slot between preverbs and the stem.
Verb TAMs
Tigol inherits many TAMs directly from Thensarian. In addition, Tigol displays extensive verb allomorphy. Verbs can be grouped in two ways: non-prefixed and prefixed, and non-ablauting and ablauting. The verb tables below will use the following example verbs:
- Unprefixed, non-ablauting verbs: e.g. túsaiṁ /ˈtuːsai̯m/ 'he prays', ía·tús /iːəˈtuːs/ 'he does not pray' (modern tus)
- Unprefixed, ablauting verbs: e.g. soṁaiṁ /somai̯m/ 'he finds (intransitive)', ía·soṁa /iːəˈsoma/ 'he does not find' (modern sov)
- Prefixed, non-ablauting verbs: e.g. as·tóċ /asˈtoːkʰ/ 'he proves', ía·assaċ /iːəˈasːakʰ/ 'he does not prove'
- Prefixed ablauting verbs: e.g. de·arcoḃ /dorˈkobʰ/ 'he tolerates' (< de-ar-cobym 'at-on-bear'), ía·dérb /iːəˈdeːrb/ 'he does not tolerate' (modern Eevo deerv)
In case where there is a preverb, the first syllable after the interpunct is stressed.
