Verbs in Tansord, beyond the tense and person/number agreements shown above, can also take on one of three aspects and one of five forms.

Verb aspects

In Tansord, verbs have one of three aspects. By default, verbs take on the Momentaneous aspect (single, punctual action).
Adding the prefix c(a)- marks the continuous aspect, meaning the action is, was, or will be ongoing and not finished.
Adding the prefix g(a)- marks the repetitive aspect, meaning that the action happens multiple times.

Examples:

• Lakunoj: I saw.
• Cal'kunej: I am seeing.
• Gal'kunej: I keep seeing.

Verb forms

There are 5 for each verb. For the verb forms, there are two classes of verbs. Most verbs are Class I, and Class II verbs are generally stative verbs (i.e. describing a state of being).
