Description and behaviour
Form and usage:
The meaning of this stem is 'Actor turns' or 'changes direction'.
According to Kleinschmidt [SK71], this can be e.g. a human, who is walking and changes direction, but it can also be a worm slithering on the ground.
Note that Schultz-Lorentzen [CWSL58] believes this stem is derived from {sak}N, but according to the Comparative Eskimo Dictionary [MFSJLK10], this is not the case.
