Description


Form and usage:

From {yaʀ}, according to Fortescue et al. (2010), thus the first morpheme is V{-rijaq}N and not V{-riaq}V. The morpheme is valency preserving on monovalent stems, but on divalent stems it seems to be valency reducing, by removing the Agent (and preserving the Patient).
