LESSON 68Regular Verbs in the Present Tense
Regular present-tense verbs
Verbs that were regular in the past tense are also regular in the present tense. Two-letter verbs are also regular in the present tense.
Example verb: “to write” (ktb)
| English | Darija |
|---|---|
| I write / I am writing | kan-ktb |
| You write — masculine | kat-ktb |
| You write — feminine | kat-ktbi |
| He writes | kay-ktb |
| She writes | kat-ktb |
| We write | kan-ktbu |
| You write — plural | kat-ktbu |
| They write | kay-ktbu |
The forms for I and we both begin with kan-, but the plural form ends in -u. The forms for masculine you and she are the same — the meaning is understood from context.
