Review Summary
- Stem + -са/-се + Personal Ending
- Subjunctive Verb + екен
常见错误
Forgetting the personal ending on the verb stem. Even with 'екен', the verb must reflect the subject.
Confusing a certain outcome with a probabilistic one (-ар/-ер). If the 'if' clause is a condition for a specific action, use the standard indicative or future negative.
Using 'шіркін' without the proper 'екен' or emotional ending makes the sentence feel incomplete and flat.
