The Verb.

The Infinitive mood of the verb has the sign at, to, before it, and the
verb gets the ending e to the root, as at rose, to praise the root is ros.
Exceptions. Verbs which end in a vowel have not the ending e in
the infinitive. All terminations of inflexions are added to the root.
;

There are two conjugations, the Weak and the Strong.

In the Weak conjugation the Past is formed by the root and inflexional
The Strong conjugation forms the Past as a rule by
termination.
changing the vowel and having no inflexional termination; but if the
root ends in Id or nd these become in the Past Idt and ndt respectively.

The plural forms of the verbs are the same as the singular.
The Auxiliary Verbs skal (shall) and vil (will) help to form the Future,
and skulde (should), vilde (would) the Conditional tenses.

Strong Conjugation.
The strong verbs form Past by changing the vowel only, but verbs the
root of which ends in nd or Id add in this case t.
The Past Participle is as a rule formed by changing the vowel, and by
adding for the common gender en, neuter et, and plural both genders ne.
In compound tenses the neuter form only is used.
The strong verbs are divided into six classes, as follows
