Etymology

Pronunciation

(Themsaran) IPA: /váːkíì/

Verb

va̋kî

  1. let me be (copula)
    Ha̋kèn thanrǎp ke̋mērâk.
    I was a warrior/soldier once.


Inflection

  • Irregular; the imperfect prefixes he- and ka- contract into the stem, producing ha̋k- and ka̋k- respectively.

Usage notes

  • Rarely (especially in independent clauses) used in present indicative; 3rd/4th person pronouns are used as copulas instead.
