OF THE VERB.
A Verb expresses action, being, or suffering.
In Gaelic there are two conjugations. The first comprehends all those verbs which begin with any consonant,
except/; as, paisg, wrap. Under the second are arranged those which begin with a vowel or with/; as, òb, refuse;
fill, fold.
The Gaelic verb is declined by Voices, Moods, Tenses, Numbers, and Persons.
There are two Voices; Active and Passive.
The different particles of conjunction and adverb in Gaelic might give rise to a variety of moods, but they may be
reduced into the five following: — The Affirmative, or Indicative, the Negative, or Interrogative, the Subjunctive, or
Optative, the Imperative, and the Infinitive.
There are three times or tenses ; the Present, Preterite, and Future.
There are two numbers; Singular and Plural.
There are three persons; First, Second, and Third.
Verbs-, like nouns, are inflected by aspirating the initial consonant, and by an occasional change of termination.
