==The Present Pluperfect==
The pluperfect combines the past tense (reference to a past time) and the perfect aspect (referring to a completed verbal action).
In English, the pluperfect looks like "'''I had stood'''." In High Valyrian, this phrase translates as '''iōrten'''.
===Consonant Final Verbs===
Below shows the present imperfect conjugation of ''maghagon''. All consonant final verbs share these personal endings.
{| class="wikitable"
| magh-ilen
| I was carrying
| first person singular
|-
| magh-ilē
| you were carrying

|-

| first person plural
|-
| magh-ilēt

|}
===Vowel Final Verbs===
There are also five vowel final verb forms that have two forms in the imperfect, similar to the future. These are similar to the consonant final verbs except that the 'i' becomes either 'ē' or 'ī'. The imperfect is formed from the verbal stem plus the theme vowel change, M, plus the personal ending. They stick to this changed vowel and have an otherwise identical personal ending to consonant final verbs. In the generic conjugation below, ''√'' is the verb stem and ''M'' is the theme vowel change.
For ''-agon'' and ''-ogon'', M=''ē''.
For ''-egon'', ''-igon'', and ''-ugon'', M=''ī''.

The Present Pluperfect

The pluperfect combines the past tense (reference to a past time) and the perfect aspect (referring to a completed verbal action).

In English, the pluperfect looks like "I had stood." In High Valyrian, this phrase translates as iōrten.

Consonant Final Verbs

Below shows the present imperfect conjugation of maghagon. All consonant final verbs share these personal endings.

magh-ilen I was carrying first person singular
magh-ilē you were carrying second person singular
magh-iles he, she, it was carrying third person singular
magh-ilin we were carrying first person plural
magh-ilēt you (all) were carrying second person plural
magh-ilis they were carrying third person plural

Vowel Final Verbs

There are also five vowel final verb forms that have two forms in the imperfect, similar to the future. These are similar to the consonant final verbs except that the 'i' becomes either 'ē' or 'ī'. The imperfect is formed from the verbal stem plus the theme vowel change, M, plus the personal ending. They stick to this changed vowel and have an otherwise identical personal ending to consonant final verbs. In the generic conjugation below, √ is the verb stem and M is the theme vowel change.

For -agon and -ogon, M=ē.

For -egon, -igon, and -ugon, M=ī.

√-M-len first person singular
√-M-lē second person singular
√-M-les third person singular
√-M-lin first person plural
√-M-lēt second person plural
√-M-lis third person plural
