The agreement markers, which are suffixed with auxiliary 'be' in sentences 58(a-f) are
same as suffixed with verb stems in past tense, sentences 24(a-d) and table 4, present

tense, sentences 25(a-c) and table 6 and future tense, sentences 26(a-d) and table 8.
The only difference is that in simple tenses, these morphemes are suffixed to verb

stem, whereas in perfect aspects, these markers are suffixed with auxiliary 'be'.
Auxiliary 'be' is different under the nodes of perfective aspects. - is the 'be' verb

for past perfective, - is for present perfective and -or - is for future

perfective.

The agreement markers vary in imperfective aspects too. Habitual aspect behaves
same as simple tense system. Durative marker -is directly suffixed to the verb stem

followed by appropriate concord. In durative aspect - is the durative marker which

is governed by all three durative aspects.
