31. A verb inflected for tense and mood is called finite; non-finite verb forms are infinitives or participles. 32. In clauses with auxiliary verbs they are the finite verbs and the main verb is treated as a subordinate clause. 33. Plural number is marked in finite verbs in various ways, depending on the arguments whose plurality is being indexed. 34. In the dependency trees, the projection of the finite verb ( V ) is the root of the entire structure. 35. The finite verb moves out of its base position after the subject into a derived position in front of the subject. 36. A modal verb can serve as the finite verb introducing a verb conditional mood, as described elsewhere on this page. 37. Compound tense forms consist of a non-finite verb form ( the compound tense stem ) and a finite auxiliary form. 38. In particular I am puzzled about the grammatical relation between the finite verb " passed " and the participle " sending ". 39. Danish has a very large vowel inventory comprising 27 V2, with the finite verb always occupying the second slot in the sentence. 40.
