Like most agglutinative languages, Azkali features very few irregular verbs: between four and five in most dialects (though some, particularly Southern Azkali dialects, have as many as twenty irregular verbs).

Like most agglutinative languages, Azkali features very few irregular verbs: between four and five in most dialects (though some, particularly Southern Azkali dialects, have as many as twenty irregular verbs). Verbs conjugate for 3 tenses, ''far past, past'', and ''nonpast'', and 4 moods, ''indicative, conditional, hypothetical,'' and ''imperative'', though in two verbs, ''to be'' and ''to have'', marking for person exists. The auxiliary verb ''itu,'' conveying a future tense, also changes depending on grammatical aspect, of which there are three: the ''imperfective, perfective'', and ''bisective.''
