Azkali verbs fall into one of three different conjugation paradigms: these are almost universally referred to as ''declension-groups'' in Azkali grammars (though 1, 2, and 3 conjugations are sometimes used). The finite forms of all Azkali verbs varies widely between the three declension groups. Essentially all non-finite forms of verbs (with a few isolated exceptions) are identical to eachother, however. | Azkali verbs fall into one of three different conjugation paradigms: these are almost universally referred to as ''declension-groups'' in Azkali grammars (though 1, 2, and 3 conjugations are sometimes used).
