===Participle===
===Participle===
In umbrean participles serves two purposes, the first one is similar to english where it takes on an adjective characteristic describing a noun, "The '''walking''' man", but with the differens of having one for every tense.
The second is for relative clauses, "The man '''whom I like'''" where the verb is turned into a participle but the sentence itself remains otherwise the same, and is like unlike english placed infront of the noun it describes.
To get the subject or object back into the clause one uses the Postpositions Kë and Pjë, both highly irregular, before the participle with the noun in their proper case.
Active voice cannot be used in participles.
To form a participle the conjugated verb is taken with the addition of a vowel which is depended on the tense in question and a consonant which depends on the gender of the subject that is being relativized, doesn't matter which of the two uses, and the voice in question.
