Simple Verbs

Today I will begin to talk about the actual language and start with the basics, the essence of all sentences: verbs.

     In Dega there are two verb types and "to be" (which is irregular). the verbs conjugate, and they do so similarly to Esperanto.
     I will use "sedo"--"to know" as an example for "-o" verbs, and "-it" verbs just have a different infinitive, otherwise they conjugate the same way; I will also show how to conjugate "to be" which just has different tense and infinitive.
     Now that we know some simple words we should also learn the word order. The most unusual thing about it is that it starts with the verb (or conjunction if there is one). Conjunction ("and" or "but" or "or" etc. connecting it to the last sentence.)-|-interrogative (question word-what, where, why, etc.)-|-Verb-Verb type (indicative, conditional, etc.)-Adverb-|-Nominative noun-Adjective-Genitive Noun-Adjective-|-Accusative noun-Adjective-Genitive Noun-Adjective-|-Dative Noun-Adjective-Genitive Noun-Adjective-|-Ablative Noun-Adjective-Genitive Noun-Preposition-Adjective

Some verbs to learn:

gazit - to lead/guide
tem - to be
teŋo - to like/love

kulo - to eat

dolo - to live

galo - to drink

kalo - to have/posses/control/own/hold

¹The Gerundive is used to turn the verb into an adjective, if the verb means something other than the English then there will be a note.
²The conditional is used "if   verb-used    noun-nom   noun-acc   would verb   noun-nom   noun-acc" (e.g. "if I knew, it would have eaten me.")
