VAI verbs are those classified as animate intransitive, meaning that they standardly don't take a direct object, and have animate subjects. VAI verbs form subgroups on the basis of the final sound of their basic stem, whether a long vowel (/e/, /ii/, /oo/, /aa/), a short vowel (/i/ or /o/), or a nasal consonant (/n/ or /m/).
