	Yacavestu is relatively unusual in that the verb stem alone is a tenseless negative form: ''axur'' (doesn't speak). Old Yacavestu used to have a consistent system of personal suffixes for verbs but in modern times, the 3rd person singular inanimate form became the default form for all persons and numbers.
