The ''reported'' evidential marks something the speaker does not know first hand; it is formed by adding '''-adm-''' at the end of the stem, e.g. ''yųladmē'' "it is said that it is being eaten"; ''yųladmāhai'' "it is said that they are being eaten"; ''yųladmegde'' "it is said that (s)he eats". The interior form has '''-irdm-''' (cf. ''yųlirdmē''), the causative exterior '''-ildm-''' (cf. ''yųlildmē''), and the causative interior '''-ildṛdm-''' (cf. ''yųlildṛdmē''). | The ''reported'' evidential marks something the speaker does not know first hand; it is formed by adding '''-adm-''' at the end of the stem, e.g. ''yųladmē'' "it is said that it is being eaten"; ''yųladmāhai'' "it is said that they are being eaten"; ''yųladmegde'' "it is said that (s)he eats".

The consequential mood of cause is formed by adding '''- | The consequential mood of cause is formed by adding '''-(n)ār-''' (<small>INT.:</small> ''-irāl-''; <small>CAUS. EXT.:</small> ''-ildār-''; <small>CAUS. INT.:</small> ''-ildṝl-'') to the verb stem. For example ''pūnu'' → ''pūnāru'' (given that I work, ...); ''pupūṃsi'' → ''pupūṃsāri'' (given that you want to work, ...).<br/> | ||

These forms can easily be formed also starting from evidentials, e.g. ''pūnannē'' → ''pūnannārē'' (given that, apparently, (s)he works, ...); ''pūnākek'' → ''pūnākutsek'' (even if, apparently, (s)he worked, but probably didn't, ...). | |||
