Etymology edit
ʼa- (“away”) + -ʼa- (unspecified person object prefix) + -∅- (3rd person subject prefix) + -∅- (classifier) + -ʼáád (imperfective stem of root -ʼAH, “to propel a flat flexible object”), lit. “to toss (some paper) away”
Verb edit
eʼeʼáád
Usage notes edit
The unspecified flat flexible object refers to the ballot, or naaltsoos. When object is specified, one says: naaltsoos iiʼáád.
In the plural, one can also use the verbs iʼiinííł or naaltsoos ayiinííł, seriative verbs from the root -NIL (“to propel plural objects”).
