Description
Form and usage:
This affix is recorded as two separate morphemes in Fortescue et al. (2010) albeit both with the same form. They suggest a relation to the two different meanings of {nəʀ}, but the derivation is unclear, so we record it here as a single morpheme with two different meanings.
