Modern Tenses
Heya,
I was playing about with how tenses would work.
I dunno if its post to put these in table format?
Anyway I thought if we had all verbs ending in
-airra -ire -yurro
(the same way french verbs end in -er/ -re / -ir)
Present Tense
Infinitives ending: -airra -ire -yurro
1st Person singular ( I ) -airrat -iut -yurrota
2nd Pers.singular (He/She/It) -airrar -iur -yurre
3rd Person singular (You ) -airryis -yurs -yurris
1st Person Plural (We) -airrakis -itk -yurroks
2nd Person Plural (They) -airrakistas -irrk -yurrokistos
3rd Person Plural(You [polite/group])-airrask -yrsk -yurrosk
Am I making sense?
Does this fit with stuff so far?
Thoughts?
clarification
So...
Say we have three regular verbs
Supposing:
To Drink is Berairra
To Eat is Cenire
To Sleep is Olyurro
Then...
To Drink Berairra
I drink Berairrat
you drink Berairrar
He drinks Berairryis
We drink Berairrakis
You all drink Berairrakistas
They drink Berairrask
To Eat is Cenire
I Ceniut You Ceniur He Cenyurs We Cenitk You all Cenirrk They Cenyrsk
To Sleep is Olyurro
I Olyurrota You Olyurre He Olyurris We Olyurroks You all Olyurrokistos They Olyurrosk
I can make up endings for all the other tenses too if people understand what I'm rambling on about and if it adds up with the Ancient Laudean.
Then anyone who wants to make up a verb just needs to end it in -airra / -ire /-yurro and we would be able to use it in any sentence.
Of course we prob need words for I/ You/ He/ We/ They... now there was some logic in Laudean meaning the same as Human and in ancient Laudean jiu'su'lade was snowman
So... Jiu is presumably Man? I'd suggest Jiu could be he.
If Sh'tla is blanket and blankets protect/keep warm then maybe Tla for she? Lomale is our third sex so I think Lo should be It. ean (end of Laudean) so maybe Ean could be We?
Thoughts?
