Meanings and examples

Or 'has moved'. It is only with spatial/directional stems N.

  • avannarparpoq, he has moved further towards North [11]
  • kujavarpoq, he moves further towards South [11]

    This is strangely formed from {kuja}N, rather than the usual directional stem {kujatə}N.

  • kangiarpoq, he moves further towards east [11]

    This is irregularly formed with loss of /v/. Presumably kangivarpoq might also be used.

  • kipparpoq, he has moved further towards West [14]

    This is from the spatial noun {kətə}N, 'area to the West' with elision of /ə/.

  • ilorparpoq, he has moved further inwards [14]
  • silavarpoq, he has moved further outwards [11]

    With sila here in the sense of 'out(side)', rather than the usual 'weather'.

  • ungavarpoq, he moves further away [14]
