The sound you hear in this conjugation is before the ending is called a glottal stop<\/a> [\u0294]. It is represented by the extra syllable chi<\/span> in waapaachi<\/strong>cha<\/span>, to indicate the trace of this syllable from the old language. In the Southern dialect, it is not written.Link to Conjugation Tables<\/a><\/p>\r\n
