              • Have studied in the room I am referring to about Present Tense…please let me know if I am correct and if the following makes sense…..as I got confused here….

                PRESENT IMPERFECT TENSE


                Transitive auxiliary
                it mentions ---kawal----to do

                To cook—pakhawal (the 1st component ends in a consonant like pakh then the ‘k’ is dropped as in awredal)

                To examine --- mayna kawal (someone does the work).....1st component ends in vowel to k isn’t dropped also as in ooda kedal, khabrey kawal, etc.

                Intransitive auxiliary
                ----kedal (changes to kegam, kegee)-----to become

                get blocked-----bandagee
                gets ripe----pakhegee
                gets close---nezdey kegee
                gets sold-----khartsegee
                both above, endings in vowel or consonant determines…

                Present Perfect TENSE


                Transitive auxiliary
                , whether last component ends in vowel or consonant

                it will be Karh…..like pakh karhi da…..Mayna Karhi da, zda karhi da… (only transitive determines the end i.e when there is an object present)

                In Intransitive
                …… whether last component end in consonant or vowel then the auxiliary is sha….as in taw sham, ter sham, nizdey sham, etc….(only intransitive determined the end)

                              • Spogmai khor, we are trying to learn the same dialect I think (Swati or northern dialect). Maybe I can offer some insight on some of your sentences, inshAllah.
