Independent verbs Flashcards
They can be used in sentences as they are, without any affixation. In other words, these are base-verbs that can stand on their own without the affixation of ber- or me-. Almost all of them are intransitive, meaning that they do not take objects and they generally require prepositions when used in sentences. The time reference will indicate the tenses of each sentence.
