Hindi verbs are inflected with respect to:
* gender of the subject (masculine, feminine)
* number of the subject (singular, plural)
* tense (present, past, future)
* action (perfect, imperfect, continuous)
* degree of respect (intimate, familiar, respect)
Verbs are referred to in their infinitive noun form which ends in "na".
Examples:
bolna = to speak
likhna = to write
lena = to take
ana = to come
The stem of a verb is the infinitive form minus the na ending.
Examples:
bol
likh
le
a
