Ukrainian verbs have only three basic tenses: present, past, and future. You can experss/identify tenses through verb endings. One verb ending you already know: it's -ти; however, since it's the infinitive ending, it conveys no meaning of tense. You've also come across some tense-related verb endings in examples and dialogues, and we will now explore these endings in greater depth.
The present tense. Remember that it's only imperfective verbs that can be in the present tense.
Two essential things to learn from this example: Ukrainian personal pronouns and six verb endings to match six possible subject persons. Note that English verbs in the simple present tense do not change regardless of the subject person except in third person singular (I/you/we/they have, but he/she/it has); however, the verb to be has more forms (am/is/are) and is therefore somewhat closer to the principle of conjugation (ending changes according to the subject person) that we're now exploring in Ukrainian. If you know German, verb ending changes should be quite familiar to you since the Germans conjugate their verbs as well.
You may recall from Lesson 2 (Letters and Sounds) that у and е are parts of two-sound letters ю and є. Therefore -у/-ю, -еш/-єш... -уть/-ють are essentialy the same endings. Note that the endings given in the first example follow a vowel, while endings from the second pattern follow a consonant. Stem changes, like in example 2, take place in some verbs. You will have to memorize most of these.
While the examples above may be considered to belong to the same pattern (it is called "Conjugation 1" in grammar books), conjugation 2 verbs have another vowel in their endings.
So much for the present tense. We won't elaborate on irregularities at this point but will draw your attention to them as we go along.
The future tense. Once you have learned the present, the future tense will be easy. In fact, future perfective verbs take on the same endings which imperfective verbs take in the present tense.
Exercise 1. Practice conjugating verbs: form the future tense of the following perfective verbs for all the six persons (refer to the examples above for correct endings).
(Follow Example 1): пообідати, прочитати, повечеряти.
2. Fill in the table:
affirmative | negative | questions | |
---|---|---|---|
I | I play. | ||
you | You help. | ||
he | He does not answer. | ||
she | Does she sing? | ||
it | It rains. | ||
we | Do we dream? | ||
you | You do not read. | ||
they | Do they work? |
