How are verb tenses indicated in Esperanto?

Answer 1

Endings describe the way that verb tenses are indicated in Esperanto. The endings -as, -us, -os and -us respectively identify the present, past, future and conditional tenses while the suffixes -i and -urespectively indicate the infinitive and the imperative. An example with the verb havi ("to have") shows the conjugation as havas, havus, havos and havus preceded by the subject pronouns mi ("I"), vi ("you" singular and plural), li ("he") or Å¡i ("she"), ni("we") and ili ("they").
