== Armenian Verb Conjugation ==
== What is Verb Conjugation? ==
Verbs are words that describe an action or a state of being. In Armenian, verbs need to be conjugated, which means that they need to be changed depending on the tense, mood, voice, number, and person.


To help you understand how verbs are conjugated in Armenian, we will first look at the three tenses: present, past and future.
Armenian verbs undergo changes in their form depending on various factors such as tense, mood, aspect, and subject agreement. These changes are known as verb conjugations. In this section, we will explore the different conjugation patterns and rules for Armenian verbs.


=== Present Tense ===
=== Present Tense ===
The present tense is used to describe actions that are happening right now, or actions that happen frequently. In Armenian, the present tense is formed by adding suffixes to the verb stem, depending on the number and person.


For example:
The present tense is used to describe actions that are happening right now or are ongoing. In Armenian, the present tense is formed by adding specific endings to the verb stem.
 
To conjugate a regular verb in the present tense, we generally remove the infinitive ending "-ել" or "-ալ" and add the appropriate endings according to the subject agreement. Let's take a look at some examples:
 
==== Example 1 ====
 
Here's how we conjugate the verb "գրել" (to write) in the present tense:
 
{| class="wikitable"
! Armenian !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
| ես գրում եմ || es grum em || I am writing
|-
| դու գրում ես || du grum es || you are writing (singular)
|-
| նա գրում է || na grum e || he/she is writing
|-
| մենք գրում ենք || menk grum enk || we are writing
|-
| դուք գրում եք || duk grum ek || you are writing (plural)
|-
| նրանք գրում են || nrank grum en || they are writing
|}
 
As you can see, the verb "գրել" is conjugated differently for each subject pronoun. The verb stem remains the same, and we add the appropriate endings to indicate the subject agreement.
 
==== Example 2 ====
 
Let's look at another example with the verb "սիրել" (to love):
 
{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
! Armenian !! Pronunciation !! English
! Armenian !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
|-
| գրում  || grum || write (he/she/it)
| ես սիրում եմ || es sirum em || I am loving
|-
| դու սիրում ես || du sirum es || you are loving (singular)
|-
|-
| գրում ենք || grum enkʿ || write (we)
| նա սիրում է || na sirum e || he/she is loving
|-
|-
| գրում եք || grum ekʿ || write (you)
| մենք սիրում ենք || menk sirum enk || we are loving
|-
|-
| գրում են || grum en || write (they)
| դուք սիրում եք || duk sirum ek || you are loving (plural)
|-
| նրանք սիրում են || nrank sirum en || they are loving
|}
|}


As you can see from the example above, the verb stem (գրում) remains the same, and suffixes are added to the end of the verb stem to indicate the number and person. For example, գրում ենք (grum enkʿ) means "we write", and the suffix ենք (enkʿ) indicates that the subject is "we".
In this example, the verb stem "սիրե" remains the same, and we add the appropriate endings to indicate the subject agreement.


=== Past Tense ===
=== Past Tense ===
The past tense is used to describe actions that have already happened. In Armenian, the past tense is formed by adding suffixes to the verb stem, depending on the number, person and gender.


For example:
The past tense is used to describe actions that have already happened in the past. In Armenian, the past tense is formed by adding specific endings to the verb stem.
 
To conjugate a regular verb in the past tense, we generally remove the infinitive ending "-ել" or "-ալ" and add the appropriate endings according to the subject agreement. Let's take a look at some examples:
 
==== Example 1 ====
 
Here's how we conjugate the verb "գրել" (to write) in the past tense:
 
{| class="wikitable"
! Armenian !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
| ես գրեցի || es grets'i || I wrote
|-
| դու գրեցիր || du grets'ir || you wrote (singular)
|-
| նա գրեց || na grets' || he/she wrote
|-
| մենք գրեցինք || menk grets'ink || we wrote
|-
| դուք գրեցիք || duk grets'ik || you wrote (plural)
|-
| նրանք գրեցին || nrank grets'in || they wrote
|}
 
In this example, the verb "գրել" is conjugated differently for each subject pronoun in the past tense. Again, the verb stem remains the same, and we add the appropriate endings to indicate the subject agreement.
 
==== Example 2 ====
 
Let's look at another example with the verb "սիրել" (to love):
 
{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
! Armenian !! Pronunciation !! English
! Armenian !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
|-
| գրեց  || gretsʿ || wrote (he)
| ես սիրեցի || es sirets'i || I loved
|-
| դու սիրեցիր || du sirets'ir || you loved (singular)
|-
|-
| գրեցինք || gretsʿinkʿ || wrote (we)
| նա սիրեց || na sirets' || he/she loved
|-
|-
| գրեցիք || gretsʿikʿ || wrote (you)
| մենք սիրեցինք || menk sirets'ink || we loved
|-
|-
| գրեցին || gretsʿin || wrote (they)
| դուք սիրեցիք || duk sirets'ik || you loved (plural)
|-
| նրանք սիրեցին || nrank sirets'in || they loved
|}
|}


The verb stem (գրե) stays the same and suffixes are added to the end of the verb stem to indicate the number, person and gender. For example, գրեցինք (gretsʿinkʿ) means "we wrote", and the suffix ինք (inkʿ) indicates that the subject is "we".
In this example, the verb stem "սիրե" remains the same, and we add the appropriate endings to indicate the subject agreement in the past tense.


=== Future Tense ===
=== Future Tense ===
The future tense is used to describe actions that will happen in the future. In Armenian, the future tense is formed by adding a prefix and suffixes to the verb stem, depending on the number and person.


For example:
The future tense is used to describe actions that will happen in the future. In Armenian, the future tense is formed by adding specific endings to the verb stem.
 
To conjugate a regular verb in the future tense, we generally remove the infinitive ending "-ել" or "-ալ" and add the appropriate endings according to the subject agreement. Let's take a look at some examples:
 
==== Example 1 ====
 
Here's how we conjugate the verb "գրել" (to write) in the future tense:
 
{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
! Armenian !! Pronunciation !! English
! Armenian !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
|-
| գրի՞՛ր || griy̰r || will write (you-singular)
| ես կգրեմ || es k'grem || I will write
|-
| դու կգրես || du k'gres || you will write (singular)
|-
| նա կգրի || na k'gri || he/she will write
|-
|-
| գրենք՞ւն || grenkʿʷn || will write (we)
| մենք կգրենք || menk k'grenk || we will write
|-
|-
| գրի՞՛րեք || griy̰rekʿ || will write (you-plural)
| դուք կգրեք || duk k'grek || you will write (plural)
|-
|-
| գրե՞ք || grekʿ || will write (you-all)
| նրանք կգրեն || nrank k'gren || they will write
|}
|}


The prefix (կար) must be added before the verb stem to form the future tense. Then the suffixes are added to indicate the number and person. For example, գրի՞ր (griy̰r) means "you will write", and the prefix կար (kar) indicates that the future tense is being used.
In this example, the verb "գրել" is conjugated differently for each subject pronoun in the future tense. Once again, the verb stem remains the same, and we add the appropriate endings to indicate the subject agreement.


== Conclusion ==
==== Example 2 ====
By mastering verb conjugation in Armenian, you are one step closer to becoming proficient in the language. Practice is key, so I recommend that you practice conjugating verbs daily in order to become more comfortable with the various tenses, moods, voices, numbers, and persons. In the next lesson, we will be exploring adjectives in Armenian. Stay tuned!


Let's look at another example with the verb "սիրել" (to love):
{| class="wikitable"
! Armenian !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
| ես կսիրեմ || es k'sirem || I will love
|-
| դու կսիրես || du k'sires || you will love (singular)
|-
| նա կսիրի || na k'siri || he/she will love
|-
| մենք կսիրենք || menk k'sirenk || we will love
|-
| դուք կսիրեք || duk k'sirek || you will love (plural)
|-
| նրանք կսիրեն || nrank k'siren || they will love
|}
In this example, the verb stem "սիրե" remains the same, and we add the appropriate endings to indicate the subject agreement in the future tense.
=== Imperative Mood ===
The imperative mood is used to give commands or make requests. In Armenian, the imperative mood is formed by adding specific endings to the verb stem.
To conjugate a regular verb in the imperative mood, we generally remove the infinitive ending "-ել" or "-ալ" and add the appropriate endings according to the subject agreement. Let's take a look at some examples:
==== Example 1 ====
Here's how we conjugate the verb "գրել" (to write) in the imperative mood:
{| class="wikitable"
! Armenian !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
| գրի || gri || write (singular)
|-
| գրեք || grek || write (plural)
|}
In this example, the verb "գրել" is conjugated differently for the singular and plural forms in the imperative mood. Again, the verb stem remains the same, and we add the appropriate endings to indicate the subject agreement.
==== Example 2 ====
Let's look at another example with the verb "սիրել" (to love):
{| class="wikitable"
! Armenian !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
| սիրի || siri || love (singular)
|-
| սիրեք || sirek || love (plural)
|}
In this example, the verb stem "սիրե" remains the same, and we add the appropriate endings to indicate the subject agreement in the imperative mood.
== Cultural Insights ==
Armenian verb conjugation reflects not only the grammatical structure of the language but also the cultural and historical influences on the Armenian people. Throughout history, Armenia has been influenced by various neighboring civilizations, including Persian, Arabic, Turkish, and Russian. These influences have left their mark on the Armenian language, including its verb conjugation patterns.
It's interesting to note that Armenian verb conjugation is relatively complex compared to some other languages. This complexity can be attributed to the rich history and cultural diversity of the Armenian people. By exploring the intricacies of Armenian verb conjugation, we gain insight into the linguistic and cultural heritage of Armenia.

Introduction

In this lesson, we will delve into the concept of verb conjugation in the Armenian language. Verb conjugation is an essential aspect of Armenian grammar as it allows us to express different tenses, moods, and aspects in our sentences. Understanding how to conjugate verbs correctly will greatly enhance your ability to communicate in Armenian and express yourself accurately.

In this comprehensive lesson, we will explore the basic rules and patterns of verb conjugation in Armenian. We will cover the different verb forms, including the present, past, and future tenses, as well as the imperative mood. Along the way, we will provide numerous examples and practice exercises to solidify your understanding of verb conjugation in Armenian.

By the end of this lesson, you will have a strong foundation in Armenian verb conjugation and be able to construct sentences with confidence. So let's dive in and discover the beauty of Armenian grammar!

Armenian Verb Conjugation

Armenian verbs undergo changes in their form depending on various factors such as tense, mood, aspect, and subject agreement. These changes are known as verb conjugations. In this section, we will explore the different conjugation patterns and rules for Armenian verbs.

Present Tense

The present tense is used to describe actions that are happening right now or are ongoing. In Armenian, the present tense is formed by adding specific endings to the verb stem.

To conjugate a regular verb in the present tense, we generally remove the infinitive ending "-ել" or "-ալ" and add the appropriate endings according to the subject agreement. Let's take a look at some examples:

Example 1

Here's how we conjugate the verb "գրել" (to write) in the present tense:

Armenian Pronunciation English
ես գրում եմ es grum em I am writing
դու գրում ես du grum es you are writing (singular)
նա գրում է na grum e he/she is writing
մենք գրում ենք menk grum enk we are writing
դուք գրում եք duk grum ek you are writing (plural)
նրանք գրում են nrank grum en they are writing

As you can see, the verb "գրել" is conjugated differently for each subject pronoun. The verb stem remains the same, and we add the appropriate endings to indicate the subject agreement.

Example 2

Let's look at another example with the verb "սիրել" (to love):

Armenian Pronunciation English
ես սիրում եմ es sirum em I am loving
դու սիրում ես du sirum es you are loving (singular)
նա սիրում է na sirum e he/she is loving
մենք սիրում ենք menk sirum enk we are loving
դուք սիրում եք duk sirum ek you are loving (plural)
նրանք սիրում են nrank sirum en they are loving

In this example, the verb stem "սիրե" remains the same, and we add the appropriate endings to indicate the subject agreement.

Past Tense

The past tense is used to describe actions that have already happened in the past. In Armenian, the past tense is formed by adding specific endings to the verb stem.

To conjugate a regular verb in the past tense, we generally remove the infinitive ending "-ել" or "-ալ" and add the appropriate endings according to the subject agreement. Let's take a look at some examples:

Example 1

Here's how we conjugate the verb "գրել" (to write) in the past tense:

Armenian Pronunciation English
ես գրեցի es grets'i I wrote
դու գրեցիր du grets'ir you wrote (singular)
նա գրեց na grets' he/she wrote
մենք գրեցինք menk grets'ink we wrote
դուք գրեցիք duk grets'ik you wrote (plural)
նրանք գրեցին nrank grets'in they wrote

In this example, the verb "գրել" is conjugated differently for each subject pronoun in the past tense. Again, the verb stem remains the same, and we add the appropriate endings to indicate the subject agreement.

Example 2

Let's look at another example with the verb "սիրել" (to love):

Armenian Pronunciation English
ես սիրեցի es sirets'i I loved
դու սիրեցիր du sirets'ir you loved (singular)
նա սիրեց na sirets' he/she loved
մենք սիրեցինք menk sirets'ink we loved
դուք սիրեցիք duk sirets'ik you loved (plural)
նրանք սիրեցին nrank sirets'in they loved

In this example, the verb stem "սիրե" remains the same, and we add the appropriate endings to indicate the subject agreement in the past tense.

Future Tense

The future tense is used to describe actions that will happen in the future. In Armenian, the future tense is formed by adding specific endings to the verb stem.

To conjugate a regular verb in the future tense, we generally remove the infinitive ending "-ել" or "-ալ" and add the appropriate endings according to the subject agreement. Let's take a look at some examples:

Example 1

Here's how we conjugate the verb "գրել" (to write) in the future tense:

Armenian Pronunciation English
ես կգրեմ es k'grem I will write
դու կգրես du k'gres you will write (singular)
նա կգրի na k'gri he/she will write
մենք կգրենք menk k'grenk we will write
դուք կգրեք duk k'grek you will write (plural)
նրանք կգրեն nrank k'gren they will write

In this example, the verb "գրել" is conjugated differently for each subject pronoun in the future tense. Once again, the verb stem remains the same, and we add the appropriate endings to indicate the subject agreement.

Example 2

Let's look at another example with the verb "սիրել" (to love):

Armenian Pronunciation English
ես կսիրեմ es k'sirem I will love
դու կսիրես du k'sires you will love (singular)
նա կսիրի na k'siri he/she will love
մենք կսիրենք menk k'sirenk we will love
դուք կսիրեք duk k'sirek you will love (plural)
նրանք կսիրեն nrank k'siren they will love

In this example, the verb stem "սիրե" remains the same, and we add the appropriate endings to indicate the subject agreement in the future tense.

Imperative Mood

The imperative mood is used to give commands or make requests. In Armenian, the imperative mood is formed by adding specific endings to the verb stem.

To conjugate a regular verb in the imperative mood, we generally remove the infinitive ending "-ել" or "-ալ" and add the appropriate endings according to the subject agreement. Let's take a look at some examples:

Example 1

Here's how we conjugate the verb "գրել" (to write) in the imperative mood:

Armenian Pronunciation English
գրի gri write (singular)
գրեք grek write (plural)

In this example, the verb "գրել" is conjugated differently for the singular and plural forms in the imperative mood. Again, the verb stem remains the same, and we add the appropriate endings to indicate the subject agreement.

Example 2

Let's look at another example with the verb "սիրել" (to love):

Armenian Pronunciation English
սիրի siri love (singular)
սիրեք sirek love (plural)

In this example, the verb stem "սիրե" remains the same, and we add the appropriate endings to indicate the subject agreement in the imperative mood.
