Hehe. Thanks! :) Be sure to pronounce it [Ix'Intutam].
I just noticed that my correction was wrong. Again.
The 3SG pronoun is indeed _u_, but the 3SG agreement
prefix is 0 (null), so the correct phrase would be:
Wix-in 0 -kin -pamuk-wa -tul pimak -0
2PL-ERG 3SG-what-speak-PRES-IRREAL language-ABS
'What language do you speak?'
That is, "kin...", not "katkin..." or "ukin...".
This time I *know* it's correct. I think... :-P
