Ubell/Verb Conjugation

Main article: Ubell

This is a paradigm of Ubell verbs, that is, a set of conjugation tables, for the model regular verbs and for some of the most common irregular verbs.

The tables include only the simple tenses. Continuous or perfect forms can be easily put together by using the appropriate verb prefixes kr- (perfect), pró- (progressive).

The pronouns ja, iqi/vos/kos, oñ/añ/iñ/eñ, san, xi/vúj/kúj and oñs/añs/iñs/eñs are used to symbolise the three persons and two numbers. Note, however, that Ubell is a pro-drop language and so it is the norm to omit subject pronouns when not needed for contrast or emphasis.

Following the convention in Latin studies, we cite the 4 principal parts from which these Spanish words derive.

=Regular -arti verbs (vadarti, to speak)=

=Regular -erti verbs (komerti, to eat)=

=Regular -irti verbs (vivirti, to live, exist)=

=Regular -[consonant]ti verbs (pixti, to write)=

=Irregular Verbs=

Fürnenti, to feel, like doing something ...
=Ubell Ambiguity=

Terti, to have (intangible object) ii
=English Ambiguity=

There are a lot of these verbs in the Ubell language. The most common example would be the copula be in English. In Ubell nouns and adjectives can become this type of verb.

Another example of this happening is when a verb has multiple meanings in English, whereas Ubell has multiple verbs differentiating the meanings. The prime example in this case would be the English verb love, where in Ubell there are 7 verbs for to love
