Description and behaviour

Form and usage:

This is the locative 3pl/pl possessive ending. It is built from the absolutive 3pl/pl possessive ending N{-i(t)} and the pure locative morpheme, {ni}.


Left sandhi:

The ending is truncative. The (t) is inserted when the /i/ is assimilated by a preceding [a] sound; and it is omitted when /i/ is not assimilated. See further under the absolutive 3pl/pl ending N{-i(t)}.
