Description and behaviour
Form and usage:
According to [MFSJLK10], the meaning of this affix is 'poor (little)'. The authors seem to suggest it is derived from +{ɬug}+, presumably the last part, whereas the initial segment is unexplained. They also mention a relation to +{ruluk}N and +{k(k)ujug}N, but without explaining what the relation is.
