Godan verb (く)
ばら撒くばらまく
baramakuばら撒く (ばらまく, baramaku) — to scatter — is a godan verb ending in く: ばらまいて (te-form), ばらまいた (past), ばらまかない (negative), ばらまきます (polite).
It is transitive: it takes a direct object. It is usually written in kana: ばらまく rather than ばら撒く. It also means to disseminate; to spread.
How ばらまく conjugates · godan く-verb
Only the last kana changes: く becomes か, き, け or こ.
Which one depends on the ending. The five are one line of the hiragana chart — same consonant, vowels あ・い・う・え・お — and everything before that kana never changes.
The て and た forms are the only two that don't follow this pattern. Every く- and ぐ-verb changes the same way there; only 行く is different.
