'''Perfect''' is formed with the suffix ''-i'' [-''y'']. Suffix-derived verbs may form it irregularly (see [[Kola#Verb_extensions|verb extensions]]).

:e.g. ጔዲ ''gwèddi'' "to have walked"

'''Present subjunctive''' is formed with the suffix ''-é'' [-''yé'']. The '''perfect subjunctive''' is formed by placing a high tone on the final vowel of the perfect.

:e.g. የዬዴ ''yäyeddé'' "who walks", የዬዲ ''yäyeddí'' "who walked"

'''Singular imperative''' is formed with the suffix ''-á'' [''-́''] in the absence of prefixes, and identically to the subjunctive in the presence of object prefixes. The '''plural imperative''' is formed with the suffix ''-(ï)ní''. Both singular and plural imperatives are replaced with the corresponding subjunctives when negated.

:e.g. ኤዳ ''eddá'' "walk", ዪድሌ ''yeddïlé'' "walk to it", ኤድኒ ''eddïní'' "walk (pl.)", ዬድልኒ ''yeddïlní'' "walk (pl.) to it"

::ከዌዴ ''käweddé'' "do not walk", ከውዬድሌ ''käwyeddïlé'' "do not walk to it", ከኔዴ ''käneddé'' "do not walk (pl.)", ከኒዬድሌ ''käniyeddïlé'' "do not walk (pl.) to it"
