Description
Form and usage:
Variant of V{(gi)jaqtuq}V with the same behaviour, and one of the same meanings. There is no explanation in Fortescue et al. (2010) for the source of the extra /aaq/ appearing at the end.
Left sandhi:The initial segment (gi) is dropped on all vowel stems, but inserted on all consonant stems (including ut(ə)-stems, since this affix is additive and thus attaches to /t/). This is similar to V{(gi)jaqtuq}V, so see this for further examples on the various stem types.
