These compounds are no longer very common, and they are sometimes used attributively, confer ''the pretty girl'', instead of ''the girl is pretty''. Most of them have become fixed phrases, '''''šayyū''''' is a common way to call for a girl, for example. The word '''''okkamik''''' on the other hand is used for especially unempathetic people. Other examples include '''''omōkkānay''''', ''God is great'', and '''''wānawakāyuma''''', ''the sky is endless''. | |||
