# '''-ir verbs''', descendants of the Latin third and fourth conjugations - like ''hrajðir ''"to believe" (< crēdere), ''hnovskir ''"to know" (< gnōscere), or ''dirmir ''"to sleep" (< dormīre), ''inørnir ''"to intervene" (< intervenīre). Those which descend from the third conjugation are called the '''-øymur '''group as their first person plural present indicative ends like that (e.g. ''hriðøymur ''"we believe"), while those which descend from the fourth one are the '''-ymur '''group (e.g. ''dirmymur ''"we sleep").

# '''-ær/-er verbs''', which do not descend from Latin but are instead made by a generalization of the pre-Wendlandish ''-er ''infinitive suffix added to other roots, like ''milær ''"to smile" (< Old Norse smíla). This is the only currently productive conjugation - e.g. ''forkastsær'' "to have lunch"; modern colloquial ''davnloder ''"to download", ''sælfijer'' "to take a selfie", ''buhojer'' "to get drunk".

==== Present indicative ====
==== Present indicative ====
The present indicative usually has two principal stems: a "stressed" stem, used for the singular and third plural, and an "unstressed" one for first and second plural. The infinitive stem is usually the unstressed one, except for ''-ir'' verbs of the ''-øymur'' group.

==== Imperfect indicative ====
The imperfect indicative is regular, and has slightly different forms for all conjugations. Note that the 3rd ''-ymur'' were once distinct from the 3rd ''-øymur'' ones, but the original forms (which often caused umlaut) have been regularized and replaced by the ''-øymur'' forms. The stem is always the unstressed one.
