Abstract
In Je languages, verbs appear in a non-finite form that fulfills a double function: licensing marked TAME semantics in main clauses, and licensing embedded clauses. However, the Panara language lost its non-finite verbal form. This paper examines Panara verbs from both a synchronic and diachronic angle, and in a broader comparative approach with regards to the morphosyntactic behaviour of verbs in the other Je languages. The main claim is that the non-finite forms prevalent in the Je family underwent a reanalysis in Panara, resulting in fully finite clauses in all environments.
