Uighur Verbs
Uyghur verbs agree with their subjects in person and number. Verbs have the following grammatical categories:
- two numbers: singular and plural;
- three persons: 1st, 2, 3rd;
- five moods: indicative, dubitative, imperative, conditional, subjunctive;
- two voices: active and passive with different forms for passive transitive and passive intransitive verbs;
- three tenses: present, past, future;
- evidentiality that is required at all times and which indicates whether evidence exists for a given statement. Uyghur contrasts direct information (reported directly) and indirect information (reported indirectly).
- politeness (respect)
- there are fairly complex rules for interrogative and negative forms
