Verbs in Garonnian is a extremely complex subject, with being conjugated for 4 moods (indicative, conditional, subjunctive, and imperative), 6 tenses (present, imperfect, future, preterite, pluperfect, future perfect), 3 persons (first, second, third), numbers (singular, plural), and also polarity and interrogative conjugations. This page only discusses regular verbs, for irregular verbs (such as errs "to be", air "to have", and herz "to do"), see Garonnian/Irregular verbs.

Overview

  • First conjugation: Verbs ending in -er, the prototypical verb is parler "to speak". It is the most common conjugation group.
  • Second conjugation: Verbs ending in -ir, the prototypical verb is partir "to divide".
  • Third conjugation: Verbs ending in -r, but always subject to metathesis if the final consonant cluster deemed unpleasant (*hezrherz "to do", *pierdrprierd "to lose").[1]

Principal parts

To conjugate a verb, one needs 5 principal parts to complete them. It may differ according to conjugation groups.

Notes

  1. Although faithful, the verb is not expected to become *pierrd because etymologically the cluster -rr- was stood as /rdʒ/.
