Imperfect of regular verbs is formed by adding a prefix and a suffix to a three-letter root. For regular verbs it like the following for the verb כתב (to write):
| person | gender | singular | plural |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3rd | masculine | יכתב | יכתבו |
| feminine | תכתב | תכתבנה | |
| 2nd | masculine | תכתב | תכתבו |
| feminine | תכתבי | תכתבנה | |
| 1st | אכתב | נכתב |
1st, sing. sometimes end with ה (see Gen. 18:30).
