If the substantive verb is placed after the gerund in Do for all the affirmative and negative conjugations, it means that the action signified by the gerund is or is not done; e.g., aguete aró 'it will already be offered,' cono qió ga caite gozaranu 'this book is not written,' agueide arózu 'he will not yet have offered.' The substantive verbs are gozaru:gozaranu, voru:vori nai, dea or gia:devanai, aru:aranu or gozaranu, voru:voranu, and each of these verbs follows the general rules for its conjugation.[[95]]
If the substantive verb from any of the conjugations is placed after the infinitive form it means that whatever is signified by the infinitive is, was, or will be; or the negative thereof; e.g., aguru coto aró 'it will be that he offers,' that is to say 'he will offer,' naróta coto gozaru mai 'he will not learn.' All these substantive verbs are conjugated in the second conjugation to which they belong by virtue of the fact that their (32 roots end in i; ari,u:gozari,u.
The Conjugation of the Negative Substantive Verb
The negative substantive verb is nai, gozanai, or vori nai which means 'not to be.' Its root is naqu, gozanaqu, or vori naqu.
The preterit is formed by changing the i in which the present tense ends to c and then adding the preterit of ari,u which is atta; e.g., nacatta or gozanacatta 'he was not.' The other tenses are conjugated, as is ari,u, in the second conjugation.
The imperative is nacare, nanaiso, or nai na 'be not!'
The subjunctive is formed by changing the i of the present tense to qereba; e.g., naqereba or gozanaqereba 'if it be not.'
The permissive subjunctive is formed by changing the i of the present to qeredomo; e.g., gozanaqeredomo 'although he is not.'
The preterit of the subjunctive is formed by adding redomo to the preterit of the indicative; e.g., nacatta redomo 'although he was not.'
