+### Verb formulas as three choices:

-<table class="table table-bordered">
+There's another way to look at the possible verb forms. Whenever we make a verb form we have three choices:
+
+1. root (past) or stem (non-past)
+2. imperfective or perfective form
+3. with <InlinePs opts={opts} ps={{ p: "به", f: "ba" }} /> or without
+
+<Image src={switches} />
+
+We can use **any possible** combination of these 3 choices, giving us:
+
+<p className="text-center">
+    <samp>2 x 2 x 2 = 8 verb forms</samp>
