You are certainly aware that asonk, i.e., the Konkani verb to be, is intransitive, which means that the action is not passed on to an object, because it has no object. However, unlike many other languages, Konkani intransitive verbs agree with the subject both in number and gender in most tenses. And that is certainly true of the simple past. This is how it is conjugated:
