Description and behaviour

Form and usage:

The meaning of this particle is: 'properly', 'correctly', 'the right way' etc. Note that the meaning always is adverbial. Thus, despite looking like a noun in the instrumental case, this stem is never inflected, so we record it as a particle.

The particle seems to be constructed from an originally verbal stem, {əlu(r)aq}V, but then with the instrumental singular ending, N{mək}, added directly onto this verbal stem.
