wam-->kha
- meequn "feather, pen" => sner "feather", khulom "pen", khulom-sner "feather pen"
- keesuk "sky, a day" => sngi "day, sun", bneng "sky"
kha-->wam
- kjat "foot/leg" => -ukhôt "leg", -seet "foot"
- ngi "we (1st person plural pronoun)" => neenawun "we (exclusive)", keenawun "we (inclusive)" This is reflective of a deeper grammatical ambiguity with regards to first person plural forms throughout the languages.
