Description and behaviour
Form and usage:
The meaning of this stem is 'Agent ignites Patient'.
When used intransitively without a HTR-morpheme, the meaning becomes passive: 'Patient is (has been) ignited'.
Compared to {əkə}V, there is a causative element to the meaning: i.e. it is burning because it has been ignited.
Right sandhi:
Right sandhi is inherited from the right-most component, V{-t}V. See this for details.
Notable forms:
-
HTR:
{əkət}V + V{ði}V ⇒ /əkətci/
The HTR-form is the expected for a t-stem. It is mentioned both in Kleinschmidt [SK71] and Oqaatsit [CBBJRPIKJR97].
