The present partciple appears to end in -ari (probably just -ri for vowel-stems). The followig possible present participles are attested: limari "newborn" (lit. "crying"), vaovaori "mewling," lislisari possibly "flowing," but any or all of these could have been lexicalized as ordinary adjectives. Derari in mazedhas derari "he was taken," is almost certainly a present participle in origin.
Jorydrare in Razdal mo Eraz's one Yunkish Valyrian line, may be a participle meaning "constantly talking." If so the -e ending might represent a dialectal difference between AV and YV.
Subjunctive
It is not certain if this is a subjunctive, but the name seems to fit the use fairly well.

Future
The only securely attested forms are tebozlivas (3s, C-fin), ilimozlivas (3s, V-fin), and majorozlivis (3pl, C-fin), and vrogozlivan (1s)
Imperfect
The only attested forms are iles (3s of sagho), and meles (3s of *imagho). Presumably regular verbs also have imperfect forms.
Perfect
The perfect is formed off of a stem of its own. The perfect stem is not necessarily predictable, and needs to be learned for each verb. But as a rule it looks similar to the present, with a t (or d?) added, and an a-stem conjugation. Thus the perfect of tebagho is tehtan (or, in a more archaizing register, teptan), and *joragho is jortan. The perfect of the irregular verb sagho is istan.
Tida in sa tida "it is done," might represent a perfect passive participle (HV teta "finished"), but it's also possible the word has simply been lexicalized as an adjective.
Passive
Passive constructions appear to be formed from the auxiliary verb *mazmagho plus a present participle. The only securely attested forms are mazedhas derari "he was taken" (literally "he got [a] taking") and mazmedhis bodmari "they are trained" ("they got training"). In less certain sources we have something that sounds like mazedhan lodiri for "I was taken."
