Class I verbs generally end with ''-or'' in the infinitive, but this by itself does not make a verb a Class I verb. | Class I verbs generally end with ''-or'' in the infinitive, but this by itself does not make a verb a Class I verb. Forming other tenses in Fejãto is usually very simple and standard, but tends to lead to long words. | ||

In the perfect case, when there is a frictave consonant ([ɕ/ʒ/d͡ʒ/s]) as a verb's final sound, 'glider e' is inserted so that ''ç'' stands alone. This makes the word easier to pronounce because the frictaves are not doubled up. | |||
===Class II=== | |||
Class II verbs end with ''-ar'' in the infinitive and generally undergo an ablaut sound change int he past tense | |||
While the ablaut can be confusing to some, even these sound changes are all regular (that is, one vowel quality always shifts to another). Those that do not conform with the normal sound shifts are classified under Class III. | |||

In the perfect tense, the prefix ''ça-'' is added to the ablauted form of the noun to distinguish it from the simple past version. | |||
The sound changes for each vowel are as follows: | |||

(I will probably rework this later with a more general raising/lowering of vowels) | |||
