Pular Verbs: An overview
To make up for its complex noun system, Pular has a very straightforward, 99% predictable verb system.
There are three infinitive endings: -ugol, -agol, and -egol. A verb can have three different forms: one in which the action is performed on something/someone else by the subject (-ugol, transitive), one in which it is performed on the subject by the subject (-agol, reflexive), one in which it is performed on the subject by someone/something else (-egol, passive).
- TRANSITIVE lootugol to wash (something or someone)
- REFLEXIVE lootagol to wash oneself
- PASSIVE lootegol to be washed (by someone else)
Each type of verb has its own set of endings. A complete table is on page 109. There are no irregular verbs, and verbs are not conjugated.
