Syntactic restrictions and other behaviours in intransitive NI otherwise that are extremely rare in transitive NI become more salient.  Intransitive NI, where certain forms of irregularities occur, also reveal clues about the Proto-Nahenic ancestor that is more difficult to discern from transitive NI, as intransitive NI was more resistant to morphological leveling than transitive NI.  This resistance can be attributed to the semantic features of the incorporated noun in the three aforementioned categories of intransitive NI.
