The present tense of regular Triparic verbs is formed by adding the personal endings directly to the stem.

The past tense is formed by adding -d- after the stem and before the personal ending. For stems ending in -d or -t, an -e- is inserted first: ego brødete "I embroidered".

Participles

Triparic verbs have two main participles: the past participle, and the passive participle.

The past participle is ge- + the verb stem + -et: geleset, gebrødet.

The passive participle is be- + the verb stem + -et: beleset, bebrødet.
