Skyrdagor verbs inflect for person (subject and object), gender, definiteness, tense, and mood. Two of the main notable features of Skyrdagor is that there are two different conjugation patterns for definite and indefinite objects and aspects are not distinguished morphologically at all. Gender is marked sporadically in subjects, namely in 2nd and 3rd singular and 3rd plural in the indefinite conjugation and in 3rd persons in the definite one, while it is marked in all persons except the 1st singular and plural inclusive for objects. | |||
====Present indefinite==== | |||
Skyrdagor verbs are mostly conjugated agglutinatively, but there are hints to a former system of vowel harmony. The 1st person singular indefinite is the citation form, as it is the most unmarked form of the verb. Non-3rd person objects do not exist in present indefinite, as they're intrinsecally definite. | |||

Vowel harmony traces are present in the 2S masculine and 2P subjects, as verbs whose roots have as last vowel '''e''' or '''i''' use ''-eb'' and ''-veb'', e.g. ''szlek'' "to drive" → ''szlekeb'' "you (sg) drive", ''szlekvet'' "you (pl) drive"; ''fkin'' "to throw" → ''fkineb'' "you (sg) throw", ''fkinvet'' "you (pl) throw". | |||
