Verbs in Rówok can get quite large with all their various [[#Derivational morphology|prefixes, infixes, and suffixes]]. They are conjugated to show [[#Verbal number|number]], person (including [[#Inclusivity|inclusivity]] in the dual and plural), [[#Voice|agency or voice]], [[#Irrealis stem|mood]], [[#Aspect|aspect]] (imperfective/perfective, as well as inchoative and frequentative), and optionally for [[#Aspect and tense|tense]].

*'''plural''', marked by the suffix '''(X)wXn''', or '''n-''' as a prefix in the 1st person inclusive

===Aspect===
===Person===
There are two primary aspects in Rówok, namely [[#Imperfective|imperfective]] and [[#Perfective|perfective]].
The '''persons''' in Rówok are the very normal 1, 2 , and 3 person scheme common to IE, though there is [[#Inclusivity|inclusivity]].


These aspects are shown by ablaut of the verb's (or [[#Participles|participle]]'s or even [[#Nouns|noun]]'s) vowel structure as shown below.
====Inclusivity====
 
The [[#Dual|dual]] and [[#Plural|plural]] both are conjugated for inslusivity in the first [[#Person|person]].
From imperfective to perfective:
*'''a''' => '''e'''
*'''o''' => '''u'''
 
The sense of the primary aspects is complemented further mainly by [[#Derivational morphology|derivational infixes]] and the like.
