In the vocabulary kingdom, in the verb state lived a variety of verbs. And this country was ruled by three sovereign tsars at once, three siblings under the name Verbal Inclusions. The elder brother was called the Imperative Direction, the middle one was called the Indicative Inclination, and the youngest was called the Conditional Direction of the Verb. All three tsar-moods were a grammatical category of verbs.
The elder brother, the imperative mood of the verb, was strict, he constantly ordered everything, demanded something, forced someone. “Go there, do it, go to work, go to bed!” - only heard from him. And when he was angry, he completely exclaimed: “Sleep! Be silent! Step march! "
No, of course, he was an extremely fair ruler. And with those who did not need orders, he treated rather nicely, expressing his request calmly and culturally. For example: “Be kind, plant more rose bushes in my garden!” or “Cook a fried chicken for lunch today!”
And it happened even when he was in the finest mood and affectionately offered someone: “Let's go to the cinema! Let's play! Long live the fragrant soap and mint tooth powder! Be healthy!"
The verbs used by the sovereign Dodging Imperative, could vary by gender and number, but did not have tenses. For example, “cook” - 2 plural, and “cook” - 2 singular. “Let's cook” - 1 plural.
Verbs in the imperative mood of the singular 2 persons have their own form inherent only to this mood: add the postfix “and” to the verb stem or use the education method without the suffix: “speak - speak”, “laugh - laugh”.
To the plural is added the ending "te": "say," "laugh."
But, if the imperative mood did not appeal to his interlocutor, but was referring to third parties who did not directly participate in the dialogue, the verbs in the speech looked like 3 persons either singular or plural in indicative, but with the addition of the words “let”, “Let it go” or “yes”: let it go, let it come, let it be light.
Of course, we already noticed that in anger the elder brother threw sharp short orders, expressing them with the indefinite form of the verb : "sit!", "Be silent!"
When he was in a good mood and invited his subjects or friends, for example, to have some fun, then he used the form of the verb of the plural 1 person of the indicative mood of a perfect form in combination with the words “come on or let’s”: “let’s go,” "Let's have lunch."
The middle brother, the Indicative Inclination of the Verb, was also an honest man, fair, in general - a realist. He expressed himself in an ordinary and understandable language, using in speech speech the verbs of all known persons and numbers, as well as in all existing tenses. Verbs in the indicative mood indicated the real action that is happening in the present, former in the past or planned in the future.
And even if a sovereign named the indicative mood of the verb joked or simply - lied, fantasized, then this was not reflected in his speech in any way. He used the same verbs with which he told about truthful things. To guess that at the moment the king is telling a fairy tale, and not telling his next fiction or just composed an amazing, fantastic story, was possible only in meaning.
In speaking, he used verbs in all possible persons, numbers, genera and tenses. For example, in the present tense this part of the speech could be conjugated: “I think” - 1 person, “you think” - 2 people, “he thinks” - 3 people. And in numbers, it also changed. If in the proposed version the verbs were singular, then “we count”, “you count” and “they count” are already defined as plural verbs.
And the third brother was a very gentle and indecisive ruler. Yes, he, in fact, did not give any orders, did not issue decrees. Most often, the Conditional Lever of the Verb gave its brothers careful advice: “It would be better, my dear brother, the Imperative Lever of the Verb in the Russian Language, if you ordered less, and you would be softer with your subjects ...” or “I would have walked more in your place fresh air".
Sometimes the Subjunctive mood (and he had such a name) was attacked by reverie. He went into the field and imagined all sorts of amazing things.
“If I had wings, I would fly above the ground like a bird!” By the way, the verbs that he used in his speeches could vary by gender and number. The tense of these verbs is not determined, but the verb in the subjunctive mood has the form of the past tense with the particle "b" or "would".
The brothers were very friendly with each other. Therefore, sometimes they used in their speech those forms of verbs that were characteristic of another mood. That is, for example, the forms of imperative mood verbs were often found in the meaning of the indicative mood: "Then take it and turn your head in his direction." And sometimes the form of the imperative mood may even have the meaning of the subjunctive: “If you hadn’t come on time, you could not have caught me.”
And in some cases, a verb in the form of an indicative mood suddenly turned into an order, that is, it was used with the meaning of the imperative mood: “Well, what did you get up? Go, go! ”
The form of conditional mood also sometimes has the imperative: “If you had talked with Natalia, she had so many gaps!”
And so they ruled their wonderful kingdom happily ever after. And to this day they still rule.
