There are three principle verb forms for each derivational stem; the '''adnominal''', '''conclusive''', and '''infinitive'''. Different forms are used in different environments. The adnominal modifies a noun, much in the way an English relative clause does. It agrees with the case of the noun. The conclusive comes sentence finally and signals the completion of a thought or action. The infinitive is used before other verbs to modify them, or to signal sequential or complimentary action. It is the only form that takes auxiliaries, such as the negative marker '''''*ɬan'''''. | There are three principle verb forms for each derivational stem; the '''adnominal''', '''conclusive''', and '''infinitive'''.
