-kö

Usage notes
This suffix can cause syllable reduction.

Verbs with this suffix display three different sets of person markers depending on their transitivity:
 * Transitive verbs take the series II marker when the object/patient is third-person, but the series I marker  when the object/patient is first-person. In the former case they can take the plural marker  after the suffix; in the latter,  before the suffix.
 * Agentive intransitive verbs take no person markers. They can, however, take the plural marker with a non-third-person object.
 * Patientive intransitive verbs take the second-person marker and can also take the plural marker.

Each type of verb can also take a suffix after the imperative suffix to form a delayed imperative.

Usage notes
This suffix can cause syllable reduction. It never occurs alone but is always accompanied by at least the past imperfective marker preceding it.
