Gevey auxillary and irregular verbs

The verbs 'ën' and 'êen', which can both be translated as to be, are highly irregular. The main use of the verbs are to act as a copula, though they also has a number of other, idiomatic uses. Note that theese verbs never takes account of their subject's number, but do take account of the subject's status. Other copula verbs ('bekan', 'sekan') are entirely regular in their formation.

The auxiliary verbs 'sen' and 'ben' are also irregular in their formation, though unlike 'ën' they do take into account their subject's number as well as status.

One further irregular verb needs to be mentioned at this point. 'gven' is a word which can be roughly translated as do. It is used to demonstrate that the action in a clause is the same action as already given in the preceeding clause. It is never used with auxiliary verbs, and is never used as an auxilliary verb, as its whole purpose is to replace the previous clause's verb.
