Description and behaviour

Form and usage:

According to Kleinschmidt [SK71], the meaning of this stem is 'Agent washes Patient', e.g. his (own) hand etc. The stem is reflexive, so if used intransitively, the meaning becomes 'Agent=Patient washes himself', or 'bathes', 'showers' etc. In the newer dictionary Oqaatsit [CBBJRPIKJR97], only this intransitive usage is listed. None of the dictionaries give a HTR-form.
