Late night verbal TAME thoughts :
This is all in its earliest stages at this point, and feel free to critique.
Basically the idea is that each verb of mine will have six stems, each used for a variety of functions. Thus far I've called the stems: perfective, imperfective, habitual, future, optative, and stative.
From the perfective stem comes the perfective series - "I did X" and all that - and the narrative past series. The perfective series comes in the past and immediate past × first-hand knowledge (s), hea...

[quote Torco]Of course, a "this is the state of the country" image will describe things about the state of the country, isn't it ? suicide rates suggest the gravity of all the other problems.
