Lombard/Auxiliary verbs

__TOC__ What are auxiliary verbs? Auxiliary verbs are verbs that are used to construct compound tenses of verbs as already explained with regard to tenses. Compound tenses are constructed by placing the auxiliary verb conjugated in the corresponding simple tense before the past participle. There are two possible auxiliary verbs: vesser and havé. The auxiliary verb is vesser (►conjugation) for the majority of intransitive verbs or in reflexive, passive or impersonal form, havé (►conjugation) for transitive verbs in the non-impersonal active form and for some of the intransitive verbs. The following paragraphs show the conjugations of auxiliary verbs in the simple tenses in Milanese and Bergamasque dialects, for the other dialects, please refer to the consultation of the Lombard language dictionary: vesser (conjugation) havé (conjugation) In many dialects, for the construction of the passive form, the verb vegnì (►conjugation) can replace the verb “vesser”. The verb andà with the meaning of “to have to be” / “to need to be” (+ past participle) is used similarly to auxiliary verbs, but only in the finite modes excluding the imperative. If the auxiliary verb is “vesser” and the subject is plural, the past participle must also be plural. If the auxiliary is “havé” the past participle is always used in the singular.

Attention: In Lombard the verb "havé" in the pure form is used only as an auxiliary verb. The verb "havé" when instead used with the meaning of “to possess” must be preceded by the particle “ghe” (or "ga " depending on the dialect) for the indicative, subjunctive and conditional moods and imperative (excluding 2nd person singular) or followed by the same particle “-gh” (or -ga depending on the dialect) in the form of a suffix in the remaining cases. (example: present tense: mi gh'hoo, ti te gh'heet, lu el gh'ha...; imperative habigh tì, gh'habia lu ....; infinitive havégh) Bergamasque dialect +Hì / HvìPresent indicativeImperfect indicativeFuture indicativePresent subjunctiveImperfect subjunctiveConditionalMehoohive / herehavaroohabiehesshavressTe tahee(t) la “t” si mette prima di vocalehivet / heretavaree(t) la “t” si mette prima di vocalehabiethessethavressetLu l' /lee l'hahiva / herahavaràhabiehesshavressNoter anhahiva / herahavarémhabiehesshavressVushiihivev / hirefhavariihabieghevhessevhavressevLor ihaheva / herahavarannhabiehesshavress +infinitivegerundhi / hvi -gerund doesen't exist in Bergamasque dialect It is not necessary to indicate the imperative and the past participle of the verb "hì", they exist only when the verb is used in the form "hìga / hvìga" with the meaning of "to possess". Unlike western Lombard, in Bergamasque dialect, as in all eastern Lombard dialects, the verb as an auxiliary is still used in the form "hvìga" / "hìga" (corresponding to "havégh" in western Lombard), i.e. with the particle "ghe".
