Description and behaviour

Form and usage:

This affix seems to be an extension of V{-jaaq}V, with more or less the same meaning: '`Subject (habitually) Vb early'. It is unclear what the second component of the affix is, but it may be some morpheme denoting 'habitually'.


Left sandhi:

Left sandhi is inherited from the left-most component, V{-jaaq}V. See this for details.
