Like all verbs, the Wikilret copula has two aspects: stative and dynamic. But it is also divided into two circumstances: essential characteristic and temporary condition or situation.
| Stative | Dynamic |
| |
| Essential Characteristic | di | tï |
Temporary Condition
or Situation | kä | ga |
| to be | to become |
Essential Characteristics: age, profession, colour
Temporary Condition or Situation: emotions, location
These are not hard and fast rules, and are often alternated to make a point or for humour.
- di kresupran be sick (ie. a terminal sickness)
- kä kresupran be sick (ie. a temporary sickness)
- di myanëra is emperor
- kä myanëra is emperor (but, that can be changed -- the speaker should be very careful who he says this to)
