7. Verbs are conjugated by adding, for the present, \*te\* to the only form, viz., the infinitive, which loses its final \*r\*. Thus, \*te falla\*; \*te faze\*; \*te vi\*. The past is formed by adding \*ja\*—e.g. \*ja falla\*; \*ja olha\*. The future is formed by adding \*ser\*. To express the infinitive, \*per\* is added to the Portuguese infinitive deprived of its \*r\*.
