This affix is actually the same morpheme as V{naq}V, but here used without a verbal ending, as is usual with exclamations. It may be given a plain, plural ending, i.e. +naq, +nat, if the exclamation concerns multiple objects, but apart from that this nominal form is not declined, nor used in further derivations with other affixes.
