[edit]
  1. (personal prefix, reflexive) Used to form the second and third person reflexive of transitive verbs:yourself,himself,theirselves. May also indicate reciprocity among the plural person:you/they ____each other. For certain verbs, this imparts an intransitive sense rather than a strictly reflexive one.

    itta(to see something)motta(He see himself, she sees herself)
    -h((plural))mottah(They see themselves, They look at each other)
    tolīnia(to bother someone, to make suffer)ammotolīniah(You (plrl.) suffer, You are bothered)
  2. (personal prefix, passive voice) Used to form the passive construct for inanimate nouns.
    titītza(to stretch something)motitītza(It is stretched)
    itta(to see something)motta(It is seen, it is visible)
    pāca(to wash something)mopāca(It is washed)

Usage notes

[edit]

As with the other reflexive prefixes andtla-, this prefixes causes deletion of initiali in verbs such asitta orilpia, with the exception of verbs beginning withih- such asihquiti.
