Datapoint San Andres Creole English/Internal order of tense, aspect, and mood markers

The combination of three TAM markers is extremely rare, probably virtually inexistent, but not ungrammatical according to native speakers. Nevertheless, the order TAM has to be inferred from different combinations. One or two markers preposed to the verb stem are the norm.
