In Assyrian Neo-Aramaic, the root of a verb consists of three or four consonants. Different inflectional forms of the verb are formed by putting different vowels in between these consonants.

Examples

The root of 'to cook' consists of three consonants, b-š-l. One possible form of this verb is bašəl, 'he cooks.'
