| 3 | 3 | ### Verbs |
| 4 | 4 | Verbs always end with [a]. They can be both transitive and intransitive, however they are never bi-transitive. Inside a sentence, verbs can be chained in a following manner: SV¹O¹V²O²... |
| 5 | + |
|
| 6 | +As an example, let's introduce following words: |
|
| 7 | + |
|
| 8 | +* ako - I; me |
|
| 9 | +* saya - to be located at; to exist (at) |
|
| 10 | +* domo - home; house |
|
| 11 | +* moka - eat; drink; consume |
|
| 12 | +* supu - soup; stew; any liquid food |
|
| 13 | + |
|
| 14 | +Using them, we can create a following sentence: |
|
| 15 | + |
|
| 16 | +Ako moka supu saya domo - I eat soup at home (lit. I eat soup be-in home) |
|
| 17 | + |
|
| 18 | +Important thing to notice is that while the natural translation suggests a usage of preposition (at home), the actual part of speech used is a verb. More literally this sentence could be translated as (and is equal in meaning to): "I eat soup and am at home" |
