Type 1: Oneself/one another
-'egh (oneself)
The suffix -'egh indicates that the action of the verb affects the subject itself. It is equivalent to the English "self". When using this suffix, a verb prefix indicating "no object" must also be used.
- jIqIp'egh – I hit myself (qIp – hit)
- bIqIp'egh – you hit yourself
- qIp'egh – he/she hits himself/herself
This suffix can also be used with imperative (command) verbs. Again, the prefix set indicating "no object" must be used:
- yIja''egh – tell yourself! (ja' – tell)
- peja''egh – tell yourselves!
-chuq (one another)
The suffix -chuq indicates reciprocal action, meaning the subjects are performing the action upon one another. It translates as "each other" or "one another". This suffix is used only with plural subjects, and verbs using it must also take prefixes from the "no object" set.
- maqIpchuq – we hit each other (qIp – hit)
- SuqIpchuq – you (plural) hit each other
- qIpchuq – they hit each other
- peqIpchuq – hit each other! (command form)
