Suffix
mch suffix
Forms nouns with nominalized-participle-like meanings from adverbs formed from verbs with mch t- -e, with the noun referring to the patient argument of transitive verbs or the sole argument of intransitive verbs: ‘the one X-ing’ (intransitive), ‘the one to X’, ‘the one being X-ed’ (transitive).
Usage notes
This suffix has a suppletive plural form mch -aamo, which must be used with intransitive verbs. Some transitive verbs can take both the suppletive plural and a regular plural mch -mü + mch -komo with no apparent difference in meaning.
