Lhaesine verb : to be is siia
siia = to be (SIGH-uh)
Languages need verbs, that is if you want to write in sentences. After several iterations I think I've determined how I want to conjugate verbs in Lhaesine.
Lhaesine verbs are not as simple as verbs in English. There are twenty-four conjugations or variations for each verb. This may sound horribly complex, but it's less complicated than verbs in either Spanish or French.
Each week I'll present a verb and show some examples. I won't Google these words. If you want more information on verbs, visit my Lhaesine website.
PRESENT TENSE
sei = I am (SEE)
sebe = you are (SEEB)
seia = it (he, she) is (SEE-uh)
seze = we are (SEEZ)
sethe = they are (SEETH)
