[edit]
Etymology[edit]
na- (atelic, circuital) + -ʼa- (unspecified person subject prefix) + -∅- (3rd person subject prefix) + -∅- (classifier) + -nish (continuative imperfective stem of root -NISH, “to work”).
Replacing the unspecified subject prefix -ʼa- with the null third-person prefix -∅- and the null classifier with -l- produces the related verb naalnish.
Verb[edit]
naʼanish
Usage notes[edit]
This verb is limited to expression in the unspecified person. For expression involving given persons, see naalnish.
