Usage notes

This verb is grammatically limited to expression in the third person.

This is a neuter verb that uses only the imperfective mode.

Young & Morgan show this verb as a neuter absolute, but in all other instances of such pairs of absolute and comparative adjectives, ní- ‎(comparative) and aheení- ‎(one compared to the other, equally) always designate the comparative counterpart (cf. níłnééz, aheeníłnééz).

Conjugation
