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. :)
