| To Have - Ra Maino | |||
| Present | Past | Future | |
| Basic | Maino | Mainola | Mainofu |
| Progressive | Mainonu | Mainonula | Mainonufu |
| Perfect | Mainodu | Mainodula | Mainodufu |
So I want to clarify the designations I gave each type of verb in the chart, because I don't use those terms exactly correctly depending on what grammar guide you read. Basic is just that: present, past and future, which is achieved with no suffix for Present, and the suffixes -la and -fu respectively.
The progressive tense is used for continued or habitual action. This is achieved with the suffix -nu.
The perfect tense is for completed action, and has the suffix -du.
Here's a chart of just the suffixes.
| Past | -la |
| Future | -fu |
| Progressive | -nu |
| Past Progressive | -nula |
| Future Progressive | -nufu |
| Perfect | -du |
| Past Perfect | -dula |
| Future Perfect | -dufu |
I used to hate the conjugation verb before because i find it really hard.Until I learned how to use it properly.Now I love it and I'm so proud of it.
ReplyDeleteA conjugation is a list of verb forms. It catalogues the person, number, tense, voice, and mood of a verb. Knowing how to conjugate verbs correctly will help you match verbs with their subjects, and give you a firmer grasp on how verbs function in different sentences.
