3. Tense affixes
From UniLang Wiki
With minor variations, owing to changes caused by weak root letters, the suffixes are the same for all binyanim.
Present tense
The present tense is actually a kind of participle, therefore it only "conjugates" according to gender and number, like adjectives.
The suffixes are in fact the same as the ones adjectives receive:
masculine singular (no suffix)
feminine singular ת -et
masculine plural י�? -im
feminine plural ות -ot
Past tense
The past tense is formed by means of suffixes, attached to the base form:
�?ני -תי Ani (I) -ti
�?תה -ת Ata (You - masc.sg.) -ta
�?ת -ת At (You - fem.sg.) -t
הו�? _ Hu (He) (no suffix)
הי�? -ה Hi (She) -a
�?נחנו -נו Anachnu (We) -nu
�?ת�? -ת�? Atem (You - masc.pl.) -tem
�?תן -תן Aten (You - fem.pl.) -ten
ה�?/הן -ו Hem (They - masc.)/Hen (They - fem.) -u
Notice that most of the suffixes bear some relation to their pronoun; (An)-i, (A)-ta, (A)-t, (Anach)-nu, etc. This is a useful way to memorize them.
Future tense
The future tense mainly uses prefixes, but suffixes to indicate gender and number are also used:
�?ני �? Ani (I) E(A)-
�?תה ת Ata (You - masc.sg.) T-
�?ת ת-י At (You - fem.sg.) T-i
הו�? י Hu (He) Y-
הי�? ת Hi (She) T-
�?נחנו נAnachnu (We) N-
�?ת�? ת-ו Atem (You - masc.pl.) T-u
�?תן ת-נה Aten (You - fem.pl.) T-na
ה�? י-ו Hem (They - masc.) Y-u
הן ת-נה Hen (They - fem.) T-na
Imperative
The imperative affixes are basically those of the future tense, minus the prefixes:
�?תה _ Ata (You - masc.sg.) (no suffix)
�?ת -י At (You - fem.sg.) -i
�?ת�? -ו Atem (You - masc.pl.) -u
�?תן -נה Aten (You - fem.pl.) -na
