 Katap'kiil

Verbs are conjugated for Moods, Tenses and Voice (altough the last part isn't ready yet). Each verb consists of four parts. The Root, the Mood, the Tense and the Ending. All of these things are attached to the verb Root to tell the relation between the speaker and the action, when the action took place and who or what did the action.

Below is a table showing the infixes or the moods and Tenses. And next to it, the personal Ending. In these examples I'll be using the first person singular ending.
Mood, TenseMood-TenseEndingSuffix
IND-PRES -э-ку- -э-ку-т
IND-PAST -э-ман- -э-ман-т
SBJV-PRES -еең-ку- -еең-ку-т


The Indicative Present tense formula is э-ку-ending or IND.PRES-Ending.
The Indicative Past is formed the same way however it replaced the present tense, tense marker ку with ман

Example:
Let's use the word тагэткән (tagaatkәn). The Indicative present tense of тагэткән is тагэкут.
Here's the break down: тагэкут. The order is Root+Mood+Tense+Ending. This is how verbs are conjugated. If I wanted to make тагэткән in the past tense, I would simply change the present particle -ку- with the past particle -ман-. Thus тагэкут becomes тагэмант
Here's тагэткән in the Subjunctive present tense: тагееңкут. The only thing that changed, was the Indicative particle -э- (aa) to the Subjunctive particle -еең- (eeng), but the other affixes stay the same.

Hope ya like the Article, a bit short, probably poorly explained, but this is my first article, so I'll blame it on that.
