2. Verb Conjugation
We need the stem (root/ setk / )to conjugate a verb.

There are 2 kind of stems [Past Stem] and [Present Stem]

How can we find the stem? Through Infinitive!

Wellfor Past Stem there is a simple rule: Take [ -an ] from the end of infinitive.

example:

to go rafatan raft :

to see didan did :

For the Present Stem, most of them are irregular so no way!..lets memorize them. ;)
