Suffix
mch suffix
Serves as an attributivizer to allow verbs nominalized with mch -tojo to function as a predicate in a subordinate clause of purpose with the meaning ‘in order to X’, ‘for X-ing’.
mch -je
Usage notes
This suffix causes syllable reduction so that mch -tojo becomes mch -to' and the combined suffix is mch -to'me. In the Caura River (Ye’kwana) dialect studied by Cáceres this suffix was only ever found in use in combination with mch -tojo.
