Description and behaviour
Form and usage:
This affix is a straightforward combination of V{-qatə}N and N{-giik}V.
The meaning follows from the constituents: 'Subject
s Vb together'.
The meaning is inherently plural, so this affix only makes sense with endings in plural.
Note that if the preceding stem is divalent and non-agentive, it will likely take a HTR-morpheme before this affix is added.

Right sandhi:
Right sandhi is inherited from the right-most component, N{-giik}V. See this for details.
