Description and behaviour
Form and usage:
According to Kleinschmidt [SK71], this stem has two meanings:
- '
AgentthrowsPatientaway'. - '
Actorshoots' i.e. with a firearm.
The first meaning is the original, and it is divalent. It also has a HTR-form, so it is clearly not agentive. However, it is difficult to view the second meaning as a reflexive or passive usage of the first meaning, so we record them here as two unrelated meanings.
Notable forms:
-
HTR:
{əgət}V + V{ði}V ⇒ /əgətci/
The HTR-form is given in both Kleinschmidt [SK71] and the newer dictionary Oqaatsit [CBBJRPIKJR97].
