varva²¹🔊AUX (mood)助able; can; likely; might; probably; will会/huì/Ni Loxrlovu te var var?你会不会说彝族话？Are you able to speak the Yi language?Ni vixluxtaer var var?你会不会游泳？Can you swim?Ngo miar bei nr jjia a, ngama ngo leil hie var.我没有做完活计，我妈妈会骂我。(If) I don't finish all the work, my mother will probably scold me.Eilni ni zalbbaer ddux a, saxr vei dae nia; nrnga a, almer zix var.今天你出去外面要带雨伞，不然会淋雨。(If) you go out today, (you) should take an umbrella; if not, you will likely be soaked by the rain.Niul ca leil zzaegu gger a, cirdaedae a ca mel niul leil nr peix gger xixl var.我们给人东西，有时候别人会给还我们两倍。When we give a (certain) amount of things to people, people might give us twice that amount in return.This sense of /var/ is a conditional 'will'. Under some condition, the results will happen. If the simple future is being expressed, the verb /nia/ 'will' is used. There are four words that can be translated as 'may, able, can, or allowed'. The words include /var/, /xie/, /ddo/ and /cexr/. The words /var/ and /xie/ are are very similar and most often mean 'able, can' in the sense of having the ability to do somethingː Either one could be used in the exampleː "I am able to carry this heavy object." The word /var/ is different from /xie/ in that it also serves as a modal word expressing that an action is very likely to happen, as inː "If I don't do my homeword, my mother will probably scold me." The word /cexr/ is most often used in the sense of being able to do some task because the circumstances permit it, as in the exampleː "The rain has stopped so you can go home now." The word /ddo/ serves as a modal word to express permission; "Having finished the tasks, now you may go back (home)." 有四个字可以翻译成 '可以, 能, 行, 会，要'. 包括 /var/, /xie/, /ddo/ 与 /cexr/. /var/ 与 /xie/ 非常类似通常的意思是 '能, 会'，有能力去作某些事的意思。两者都可以用在这样的句子中ː "我有能力举起这个重的东西。" /var/ 这个字不同于 /xie/ 它可以用为一个模态的字，表明某行动或行为很可能发生，譬如ː "假如我不作我的作业，我妈妈可能会骂我。" /cexr/ 有这样的意思: 若情况允许的话，就能够做某些事情。譬如ː "雨已经停了，你现在可以回家了。" /ddo/ 这个字用为一个模态的字，以表达对于某事的允许; 譬如: "你既然已经完成了这些工作, 就可以回家了。"An auxiliary (AUX) is defined as word which accompanies the main verb in a clause and helps to make distinctions in the mood, timing or direction of the verb.助动词的定义是：一个或几个字在子句或从句中，伴随着主要动词；可以帮助区分‘情绪，氛围’，‘时序，时机’或‘动词的方向’。Compare 另见cexrddolaleiniangossaxiegel kɯ⁵⁵
