Future Tense (Part 2)
In this lesson we learn how to construct the future form of any normal, regular, verb,
e.g. Drappal etc. In the same way as the past tense, you start with the root of the
verb. As with the past tense any verbs ending with -
aghey , -agh , -aghtyn
have this ending replaced with '
ee
'. It is easiest if we treat these two cases separately.
Verbs not ending 'agh' etc.
Drappal (Drapp)
Drappym - I will climb Drappee oo - You will climb
Drappee ish - She will climb Drappee eh - He will climb
Drappmayd - We will climb Drappee shiu - You(p) will climb
Drappee ad - They will climb
Verbs ending 'agh' etc.
Cooinaghtyn (Cooinee)
Cooineeym - I will remember Cooinee oo - You will remember
Cooinee ish - She will remember Cooinee eh - He will remember
Cooineemayd - We will remember Cooinee shiu - You(p) will remember
Cooinee ad - They will remember
Questions, negative etc.
For both groups the dependent part is formed by hideously mutating the start of the
examples given above. Note that the
ee
is lost in the dependent form of the verbs not ending
-agh
. The mutations are as follows.
p -> b -> m k -> g
t -> d -> n c -> g
ch -> j -> ny f -> v
qu -> gu -> ng
