Complex Verb Conjugation

“Tlu” is the verb “to be” and is one of the few wildly irregular verbs in Drowic. The best option for the proper use of “tlu” is to memorize its many forms.

Passive voice is used to show that an action is done to someone by an unspecified source. In order to conjugate the passive voice, much like with the future tense, we leave the predicate verb in the infinitive form and conjugate the verb “tlu” (to be). Verbs can be used like adjectives in this case when they are describing an ongoing effect or action whether present past or future by adding the verb suffix “ir” such that the passive voice can be completed as follows:

These structures continue to hold true in the past and future passive tense.

And so on.

Complex verb conjugation continues below the cut.

The auxiliary verb “xi” (to have [done something]) is related to the verb “xun” (to do or complete) and is not to be confused with “*gran” (to have or possess). To conjugate verbs in the present perfect, past perfect, and future perfect, use the verb “xi”as follows.

Finally, progressive tense functions very much the same way that the passive voice is completed using the verb suffix “ir”. In order to make a verb progressive or ongoing, the verb should be preceded by the appropriate conjugation of “tlu” (to be) followed by the verb in the infinitive with the verb suffix “in”.

This follows similarly for past and future progressive tenses.
