- Verbs in Trigedasleng have the biggest differences from English of any part of speech. Trigedasleng verbs have two parts: the verb root, and one of eight satellites.
  Some verbs, like auxiliary and modal verbs, don’t have or require satellites. Many verbs have different meanings depending on the satellite.
- Most verbs have a satellite that directly follows the direct object, if one is present; if a direct object is not present, the satellite follows the verb. Satellites precede indirect objects and other phrases that follow the verb.
  There are eight satellites present in Trigedasleng (op, in, au, we, of, raun, daun, klin), though a ninth (thru) has been listed in a post, on David J. Peterson tumblr, about grammar, but hasn't been seen in the wild.
- Some useful guidelines for satellites follows:
  "Raun" is used for base-transitive verbs when used intransitively, and replaces "op" or "in"
- "Op" seems to be attached mostly to concrete verbs (verbs for doing and acting on the physical world), whereas in is more likely to appear with abstract verbs (verbs for things like thinking and saying and hearing, which don't really act on the physical world as much)
  attached mostly to concrete verbs (verbs for doing and acting on the physical world), whereas in is more likely to appear with abstract verbs (verbs for things like thinking, saying and hearing, which don't really act on the physical world as much)
- Not all verbs have a satellite. Verbs having to do with agent-initiated motion or causation, performative verbs, and auxiliary/modal/function verbs don't have satellites.
  They can co-occur with satellites, but that typically changes their meaning.

- Bilaik is a general subordinator that has a lot of uses, but has no direct counterpart in English.
  It can mean “that” or “who” or “which”, it can introduce a hypothetical or conditional clause, and it can serve the same functions as “like” or “as.”
- In this example, the phrase that follows “before” is a subordinate clause, and a hypothetical.
  It hasn’t happened yet and it can be prevented, and bilaik emphasizes that.
- Here, the subject of the embedded clause (“the warrior”) is coindexed with the target of relativization.
  In other words, the subject of the embedded clause is also the subject of the sentence as a whole, and the embedded clause provides specification.
- In this case, bilaik is used as a subordinator
  and could be translated as “that”: “I told him (that) we were safe.”
- There are a limited number of prepositions in Trigedasleng, and so each one has many different meanings that are context-dependent
  The most common preposition is gon, which can mean “against”, “on”, “to”, “at”, “for”, “towards”, “because of”, “upon”, etc...
- raun is a general locative preposition which usually means “near”, “around”, “in”, or “next to”
  and shares origins with the satellite raun
- ona is also a locative preposition which means :
  “on”, “under”, or “into”
- kom is derived from the English word “come” and means “from”, “of”, or “with”
  It is typically used to indicate belonging or possession.
- is a narrow-usage preposition which means :
  “regarding” or “about”
