Mood: mood
Mood is a feature that expresses modality and subclassifies finite verb forms.
Ind: indicative
The indicative can be considered the default mood. A verb in indicative merely states that something happens, has happened or will happen, without adding any attitude of the speaker.
Examples
- Ти навчаєшся в університеті. “You study at the university.”
Imp: imperative
The speaker uses imperative to order or ask the addressee to do the action of the verb.
Ukrainian verbs (except for modal verbs) have imperative forms of the second person singular, first person plural and second person plural.
Examples
- Навчайся в університеті! “Study
Singat the university!” - Навчайтеся в університеті! “Study
Plurat the university!” - Навчаймося в університеті! “Let us study at the university!”
Cnd: conditional
The conditional mood is used to express actions that would have taken place under some circumstances but they actually did not / do not happen.
Ukrainian conditional is formed periphrastically using the past participle of the content verb and a special form of the auxiliary verb б.
The past participle of the content verb is not marked as conditional because it can also be used in past indicative.
Examples
- Якби я був розумним, я б вчився в університеті. “If I were smart I would study at the university.”
