Inflection

Inflection pattern:

Stem type: Vowel stem
Inflection sandhi: Default/none, p-declined
Sources: [JP67]

Notes on inflection:

The stem inflects as an ordinary vowel stem with p-declension. As this is entirely regular, we do not record a full inflection paradigm here. The secondary form, {ajak}N, is likely not inflected, but only used as an exclamatory form.
