FORMATION OF THE OPTATIVE, CONJUNCTIVE, AND
CONDITIONAL MOODS, AND THE PARTICIPLE
The optative mood does not have forms of its own but compensates for
this in part by adding to the imperative certain particles which indicate
desire, in part by adding to the future indicative particles which show
regret for not doing something, and in part by circumlocutions with the
conditional mood and certain particles, as will be seen in the
conjugations.
The conjunctive mood has two sorts of proper forms. The first is the
common and ordinary form ending in Eba, corresponding to the Latin
cum. The other ends in Domo, corresponding to the particle "although
(posto que)." The other verbs of this mood do not have their own forms,
but are expressed by circumlocutions as we shall see.[24]
The present tense of the first conjunctive is formed from the present
indicative by changing the final Ru to Reba; e.g., Motomureba. For the
preterit Reba is added to the preterit indicative; e.g., Motometareba.
For the future the final Ru of the third form of the future indicative is
changed to Reba; e.g., Motomeôzureba. For a second form of the future
the syllable R[vo] is added to the indicative preterit perfect; e.g.,
Motometar[vo]. This particle is Ran in the written language; e.g.,
Motometaran.[25] An utterance (oraçam) does not end in this form, but
must be followed by a noun.[26]
The present tense of the second conjunctive is formed by changing the
final Ru of the present indicative to Redomo; e.g., Motomuredomo. For
the preterit Redomo is added to the indicative preterit perfect; e.g.,
Motometaredomo. Strictly speaking this form is Motomete aredomo,
losing the E of the participle. Furthermore, Motometa, together with the
other preterit forms in Ta
