Verbs are often serialized in non-formal speech, in which the verbs' agreement marking may or may not match. In most serial verbs the components are compounded when possible but retain their meaning when separated. | |||
Aspect-mood marking and preceding particles are applied to the first verb in the serialization. Following particles are applied after either the first (as in most regions) or last verb (as in some regions and standard and Royal Knrawi). | |||
Serialization is especially common when the first verb is an intransitive or sensory verb. | |||
