D'oh! The verb agrees with the absolutive argument. Why can't I ever learn?! The above should read: Wix-in u -kin -pamuk-wa -tul pimak -0 2PL-ERG 3SG-what-speak-PRES-IRREAL language-ABS 'What language do you speak?' That is, "ukin...", not "katkin..." But I'm sure you all noticed that without me having to send corrections. :) ||| daniel -- <> Kattawiknik pimaktasal! <> daniel.andreasson@telia.com <> <> Katsayuknik pimak! <> www.geocities.com/conlangus <>
