iighááh

== Navajo == === Etymology === ʼa- (“away”) + ∅- (3rd person subject prefix) + ∅- (classifier) + -ghááh (imperfective stem of root -YÁ, “to go, to walk — 1 actor”) ∅- (classifier) + -ʼaash (imperfective stem of root -ʼÁÁZH, “to go, to walk — 2 actors”) d- (classifier) + -kááh (imperfective stem of root -KAI, “to go, to walk — 3 actors”) === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /ʔìːɣɑ́ːh/ === Verb === iighááh he/she goes out of sight (with yah) he/she goes in, enters an enclosure Ken hooghan góneʼ yah iighááh. ― Ken comes into the hogan. Yah aninááh! ― Come in! (with yóóʼ) he/she goes away, gets lost ==== Usage notes ==== Like all go-verbs, this verb uses three different roots for 1 subject going alone, 2 subjects going in a pair, and 3+ subjects going in a group. All three roots can be conjugated in all 3 numbers (singular, duoplural, distributive plural), with practical different meanings. See chʼéghááh, chʼéʼaash, chʼékááh for further details. ==== Conjugation ==== Paradigm: Momentaneous (∅/yi). ==== Derived terms ==== bichʼą́ą́h iighááh
