'''Initiation''': prefix ''[[Contionary: aw-|aw-]]'' and suffix ''[[Contionary: -ng|-ng]]''
'''Initiation''': prefix ''[[Contionary: aw-#Brooding|aw-]]'' and suffix ''[[Contionary: -ng#Brooding|-ng]]''


To say that a subject is beginning to have the quality that the adjective describes, you go through a special process of turning the adjective to a verb. First ''[[Contionary: aw-|aw-]]'' is added to the front and becomes the key vowel for the new verb. ''[[Contionary: -ng|-ng]]'' is added to the end. This creates an intransitive verb.
