====1st conjugation==== | |||
The first conjugation in Lifashian is the most common, the one with the most regularized verbal formations, and (by means of the suffix ''-iy-'') the main productive one. Nearly all verbs ending in ''-ámi'' in the first person singular of the present (the citation form) belong to it. | |||

The past augment is '''e''' if the root vowel (or first vowel of the root) is a front vowel (e.g. ''berámi'' "I carry", ''eberam'' "I carried"), '''a''' otherwise. | |||
