Germanic verbs are | Skylandic verbs are classified using two sets of classifications — based on how they conjugate and on how they look. Based on how they look, a Skylandic verb can either be '''Germanic''' or '''French-y'''. Germanic verbs are called that not because they evolved from PGmc, but because end in the infinitive suffix '''-en''' while French-y verbs are called that not because they are French loans, but because they end in one of these endings: '''-ir, oir,''' or '''-re'''. Based on how they conjugate, they can be '''strong, weak, irregular''' or '''special'''. Most of the Germanic verbs are either weak or strong (depending on spelling; see below) while French-y verbs are mostly irregular. ''Special verbs'', on the other hand, are a set of regular French-y verbs that have a separate regular conjugation scheme of their own. | ||
