Some of the common verbs are abbreviated in the imperative (not the optative). Most common are:
"Be!" "Go!" "Bring!" "Do!" "Speak!" | Gìsa! Witsào! Dègèsào! Òësào! Magosào! | -> | Ga! Wìt! Dèg! Òë! Magos! |
Dègèsào lilu zhùda mo dèt! Dèg lilu zhùda mo dèt! Rùmukavìnas shào dju ìljei më!. | Bring me that book! Bring me that book! Let us escape from this place! |
The primary subjunctive endings are quite different from the indicative:
-mas -sào -pi | -vìnas -satso -ròdji |
All verbs conjugate the same as the present indicative, merely exchanging the subjunctive endings for the indicative.
