This table shows how verbs change by how they're being used. Most of these wordbits are 1:1 to a pronoun. Because of this, you can often say a sentence without saying the pronoun. The first new column, ‹arbizbi›, moreso denotes 'someone who performs this action' usually used for things like workers, for which the column is named. The rightmost column denotes 'a point when a verb occured'. The last two are nouns, and thus can be made into adjectives under some circumstances. Adjectives that change to the арбизби the portion underlined be referenced instead of the last vowel.
Adverbs are like adjectives, but for verbs. Things that change the meaning of the verb, like wordbits or adverbs, go before the verb. Adverbs will change to match the gender of the verb, which is from the gender of the thing that did the verb.

‹Delasamaja› , literally 'the beforetime' is attached before verbs or pronouns to talk about things that have already happened. When you specify the past once, you won't need to specify it again, until a time related preposition, like ‹nu› or ‹dalá› or ‹lade› is used. ‹Dalásamaja›, or 'the untiltime' which is used for talking about things that haven't happened yet, does not have this same feature, as you usually only talk about small amounts of things in the future, unless it's a pitch or roadmap, whereas long-form things, like stories, are usually always in the past.
This section pertains to some very high level stuff that allows you to to shape a sentence into any form you could want. For this, I will start by defining some terms. In a sentence, a 'subject' is that which does something, the 'verb' is what the subject did, and the 'object' is what the act stated in the verb. In the sentence 'The cat is orange' 'the cat' is doing the act of being, 'is', and this act of being is done unto orange, a color.
Verb at the Start | Verb at the End | Switch Subject and object | |||
Е | У U |
ла la |
|||
На Калба́, the normal order of words is subject, verb, object, or 'S-V-O'. Using 'E', this becomes 'E V-S-O'. Using 'U', this becomes 'U S-O-V'. Using la, this becomes 'O ‹la› V-S.
