Verb conjugations

This page is a hub for the verb conjugations. This document is a brief explainer for the names I use for verb types. See links at the bottom for notes about specific conjugations.
In the linked notes, I use the terminology:
- 五段 verbs, also known as う-verbs, group 1 verbs, and consonant-stem verbs.
- 一段 verbs, also known as る-verbs, group 2 verbs, and vowel-stem verbs.
- Irregular verbs. These very depending on the conjugation, but the two most commonly seen are する and 来る. However, there are others!
Conjugations of verbs documented here:
- The dictionary form (verbs are catalogued in this form).
- The te form, て形.
- The potential form, 可能形.
- The volitional form, 意向形.
- The hypothetical form, 仮定形.
