Verbs mark aspect, mood, subject and object and have two categories: '''independent''' (in a main clause) and '''conjunct''' (used in subordinate clauses, with participles and question particles).  
Verbs mark aspect, mood, subject and object and have two categories: '''independent''' (in a main clause) and '''conjunct''' (used in subordinate clauses, with participles and question particles). Intransitive verbs can only mark the subject, while transitive can also mark both direct and indirect objects (or one of them). Some markers can show variations among different dialects.
 
Kalyah verbs have a similar shape to other Plains languages. Here is a template for all types of verbs:
