Review Summary
- Verb root + tunna + ending
- Subject + Verb root + tunna + (nu/vu/ru/mu)
常见错误
You must include the full verb ending for the subject 'I'. Don't drop the 'nu' at the end.
Similar to 'I', the 'you' form requires the 'vu' suffix to be grammatically complete.
The -tunna- suffix should be attached directly to the verb root without a space.
