The present and past templates are inflected with two sets of sets of suffixes termed by Geoffrey Khan as S-suffixes and L-suffixes which mark the subject. The S-suffixes exist in ‘default’ and ‘long’ forms. The ‘default’ form is used by all speakers, while the ‘long’ form is formed by adding –ni after vowels and –ən after consonants with the exception of the 1st person singular and the 2nd person plural, which instead add –a. It is used by optionally by speakers from some villages on the Urmia Plain and the Caucasus, and not used when an adiditonal suffix is added to the verb.
