Ex. ga koda (perhaps the past of kodede,) pierced, komatede, to pierce (of a man); ga siuda, extinguished, siumatede, to extinguish.
Note. This suffix appears in some examples as a separate verb in the same sense.
Ex. yuv’ olola mata, warm up the water; indi koi matatsi, the knife will become bad.
The negative is not known.
5. The suffixes -meme and -ngo are added to neuter verbs. The first has an active meaning, the second is passive.
Ex. yu, to be upright, yuma, to put upright, yungo, to be upright. yari(?), yarima, to hang, yaringo, to be hanging.
Note (1). Meme is regularly conjugated; -ngo is imperfectly known.
(2). Negative forms are me yumatsi, will not place upright, mi yaringo, not hanging.
6. The auxiliary verbs, except ga, may perhaps be included among the suffixes (see p. 322, VIII.).
