Editing Guarani language (section)

=== Tense and aspect morphemes ===
* '''{{lang|gn|-ramo}}''': marks extreme proximity of the action, often translating to "just barely": {{lang|gn|Oguahẽramo}}, "He just barely arrived".<ref name="Graham, 1969">{{cite book |last=Graham |first=Charles R. |title=Guarani Intermediate Course |year=1969 |publisher=Brigham Young University |location=Provo}}</ref>{{rp|198}}
* '''{{lang|gn|-kuri}}''': marks proximity of the action. {{lang|gn|Haʼukuri}}, "I just ate" ({{lang|gn|ha'u}} irregular first person singular form of {{lang|gn|u}}, "to eat"). It can also be used after a pronoun, as in {{lang|gn|ha che kuri, che poʼa}}, "and about what happened to me, I was lucky".
* '''{{lang|gn|-vaʼekue}}''': indicates a fact that occurred long ago and asserts that it's really truth. {{lang|gn|Okañyvaʼekue}}, "he/she went missing a long time ago".
* '''{{lang|gn|-raʼe}}''': tells that the speaker was doubtful before but he's sure at the moment he speaks. {{lang|gn|Nde rejoguaraʼe peteĩ taʼangambyry pyahu}}, "so then you bought a new television after all".
* '''{{lang|gn|-rakaʼe}}''': expresses the uncertainty of a perfect-aspect fact. {{lang|gn|Peẽ peikorakaʼe Asunción-pe}}, "I think you lived in Asunción for a while". Nevertheless, nowadays this morpheme has lost some of its meaning, having a correspondence with {{lang|gn|raʼe}} and {{lang|gn|vaʼekue}}.
The verb form without suffixes at all is a [[present tense|present]] somewhat [[aorist]]: {{lang|gn|Upe ára resẽ reho mombyry}}, "that day you got out and you went far".
* '''{{lang|gn|-ta}}''': is a [[future tense|future]] of immediate happening, it's also used as authoritarian [[imperative mood|imperative]]. {{lang|gn|Oujeýta ag̃aite}}, "he/she'll come back soon".
* '''{{lang|gn|-ma}}''': has the meaning of "already". {{lang|gn|Ajapóma}}, "I already did it".
These two suffixes can be added together: {{lang|gn|ahátama}}, "I'm already going".
* '''{{lang|gn|-vaʼerã}}''': indicates something not imminent or something that must be done for social or moral reasons, in this case corresponding to the [[German language|German]] [[modal verb]] {{lang|de|sollen}}. {{lang|gn|Péa ojejapovaʼerã}}, "that must be done".
* '''{{lang|gn|-ne}}''': indicates something that probably will happen or something the speaker imagines that is happening. It correlates in a certain way with the [[subjunctive]] of [[Spanish Language|Spanish]]. {{lang|gn|Mitãnguéra ág̃a og̃uahéne hógape}}, "the children are probably coming home now".
* '''{{lang|gn|-hína}}''', '''{{lang|gn|-ína}}''' after nasal words: continual action at the moment of speaking, present and pluperfect continuous or emphatic. {{lang|gn|Rojatapyhína}}, "we're making fire"; {{lang|gn|che haʼehína}}, "it's ME!".
* '''{{lang|gn|-vo}}''': it has a subtle difference with {{lang|gn|-hína}} in which {{lang|gn|-vo}} indicates not necessarily what's being done at the moment of speaking. {{lang|gn|ambaʼapóvo}}, "I'm working (not necessarily now)".
* '''{{lang|gn|-pota}}''': indicates proximity immediately before the start of the process. {{lang|gn|Ajukapota}}, "I'm near the point at which I will start to kill" or "I'm just about to kill". (A particular sandhi rule is applied here: if the verbs ends in {{lang|gn|-po}}, the suffix changes to {{lang|gn|-mbota}}; {{lang|gn|ajapombota}}, "I'll do it right now").
* '''{{lang|gn|-pa}}''': indicates emphatically that a process has all finished. {{lang|gn|Amboparapa pe ogyke}}, "I painted the wall completely".
This suffix can be joined with {{lang|gn|-ma}}, making up {{lang|gn|-páma}}: {{lang|gn|ñande jaikuaapáma nde remimoʼã}}, "now we came to know all your thought".
* '''{{lang|gn|-mi}}''': customary action in the past: {{lang|gn|Oumi}}, "He used to come a lot".
These are unstressed suffixes: {{lang|gn|-ta, -ma, -ne, -vo, -mi}}; so the stress goes upon the last syllable of the verb or the last stressed syllable.
