The most commonly used dative verb forms are those of the irregular verbs 'to be' and 'to have', which are in constant use as tense auxiliaries, when these verbs have no lexical meaning of their own. This is the reason why many of the glosses given below sound odd (e.g. "dit" 'he has it to me'); an example of a more natural-sounding use of this form as an auxiliary would be "eman dit" 'he has given it to me'. Nevertheless, the following table serves to clarify the morphological structure of dative-argument verb forms.
