Description and behaviour

Form and usage:

According to the Comparative Eskimo Dictionary [MFSJLK10], the meaning of this affix is 'be occupied with', probably mainly with nominal stems. They suggest it is from +{li}V and then either +{qə}V or +{rqə}V. We assume the first possibility here, because of the 'continuously' meaning.
