The two cases used for quotation are used for different quotation purposes. '''Mavalúuk''' indicates an oral citation, something that is said and not recorded, something from the memory, a citation of an oppinion. '''Bavalúuk''' on the other hand quotes texts, written sources or natural laws, in general things that are fixed in stone, on paper and not an opinion. If there is an opinion written down on a paper, '''mavalúuk''' is used instead.
