Description and behaviour
Form and usage:
This word is a combination of {apqutə}N + N{-li}V + V{nəq}N, where N{-li}V regularly causes replacivity, changing /təl/ to /s/.
This word declines as V{nəq}N, its final constituent. Thus it can be declined either as strong q-stem with weakening, or with metathesis.
Right sandhi:
Right sandhi is inherited from the right-most component, V{nəq}N. See this for details.
Inflection sandhi:
Inflection sandhi is inherited from the right-most component, V{nəq}N. See this for details.
