Here are the other verbal classes.
First, a few corrections in the -áu verbs.
Antipassive Infinitive: -atles
2nd person plural present normal is -éiç
Past exalted
S P
1 éi amous
2 éç aceis
3 óuç áun
The plurals of all antipassives begin with -toe-, e.g., -toesmous
instead of -tousmous
2nd person plural preesnt normal antipassive is -tóess
3rd person singular past normal antipassive is -átleseç
Also, all <l>, except in <tl> should be <r> (merely an orthographic
difference)
Class II
Infinitive: -éi
Antipassive infinitive: -éitles
Perfect Participle: -tous
Present tense
Exalted Normal Humble
S P S P S P
1 ou éinç ein iánç
2 eis éiç as iáç

S P S P
1 rein ránç sen séinç
2 ras ráç seis séiç
3 raç ran seç sen
*stem vowel changes, a -> e, e -> ei, ei -> i, o -> ou, ou -> u
Antipassive is identical to -áu verbs in the plural, and in the
singular, -a- is replaced by -ei-, and -e- by -i-, e.g., past exalted:
S P
1 ípf toefeinç
2 eipfist' toefeiç
3 eipfeiç toefein
Class III
Infinitive: -re (-le, -e)
Antipassive infinitive: -tóes
Perfect Participle: -tous
Class III is divided into 2 subcategories, corresponding to the -o and
-io groups in Latin, most -io verbs have moved to the -o group, and many
class III verbs in Latin have moved to II or IV.
Present tense
Exalted Normal Humble
S P S P S P
1 ou, iou* mous an, in* ánç, iánç
2 eis teis as, ias* áç, iáç
3 eiç on, ion* (a)ç, iç* (a)n, in* eç, ieç* en, ien*

S P S P
1 ran ránç sen séinç
2 ras ráç seis séiç
3 raç ran seç sen
*Stem vowel changes, a -> e, e -> ei, ei -> i, o -> ou, ou -> u
Antipassive is the same as -áu in the plural, and in the singular, the
first vowel is dropped (so -açoun -> -çoun), and accented -á- is
replaced by stem stress. For example, 1st Singular Past Normal for amáu
and for ccaple is amátlesen and ccáptlesen (/A'mAKEsEn/ /'kafKEsEn/)
Class IV
Infinitive: -í
Antipassive infinitive: -ís
Perfect Participle: -itous
Present tense

These are all derived from debêre, which also exists as a regular
independant verb debéi, meaning "to owe"

3 íç ión éç én íç ín
Future Past
Exalted Normal
S P S P
1 iban bánç isen céinç
2 ibas báç iseis céiç
3 ibaç iban iseç isen
These are derived from _îre_, which also forms part of the conjugation
of _badle_ (from _vadere_, or was it _vadêre_, in which case it'd be
_badéi_?)
Bele (< _velle_) plus infinitive is also sometimes used for future,
e.g., Bein amáu OR amaudéin (amáu = to love)
I haven't figured out imperatives. I don't think that the Latin
imperatives will have survived, and I don't think it'll be inflectional.
