Moods
Moods are the main conjugations for verbs. There are seven moods, which are the Indicative (for facts), Conditional (for requests and conditions), Optative (for hopes and wishes), Subjunctive (for possibilities), Potential (for probabilities), Imperative (for commands), and Interrogative (for questions). They are all conjugated by suffixes. The Optative case is also used for making the verbs related to emotion and for exclamative sentences.

Voice
Only active voice, which is conjugated as a normal sentence, is allowed. However, a passive voice can be constructed by flipping the word order with no further changes.

Aspect
Aspect is essentially a subdivision of tense in Tesipa.
