Chapter 27: The Ti-Group

Next we have the Ti-Group.  They take the following forms:

                Æ         E         sË       wË        Ö/U        I
   --------------------------------------------------------------------
   hati-    | hati-      hën-      hën-      hën-      hën-      hën-
   wati-    | wati-      wën-      wën-      wën-      wën-      wën-
   huti-    | huti-      hun-      hun-      hun-      hun-      hun-
   uti-     | uti-       un-       un-       un-       un-       un-
   höwöti-  | höwöti-    höwën-    höwën-    höwën-    höwën-    höwën-
   köwöti-  | köwöti-    köwën-    köwën-    köwën-    köwën-    köwën-
   shakuti- | shakuti-   shakun-   shakun-   shakun-   shakun-   shakun-

We can note the following patterns:

   * All the prefixes end in -ti- in the Æ-Stem form.

   * All the prefixes end in -ën- or -un- in all the rest of the forms.

For example:

   hatiæya'tahkwa'     ::  they all (m) tease it
   watiæya'tahkwa'     ::  they all (f) tease it
   hutiæya'tahkwa'     ::  it teases them (m)
   utiæya'tahkwa'      ::  it teases them (f)
   höwötiæya'tahkwa'   ::  she teases them (m)
                             they tease them (m)
   köwötiæya'tahkwa'   ::  she teases them (f)
                             they tease them (f)
   shakutiæya'tahkwa'  ::  they (m) tease her
