Transitive verb of caused movement. Has derived intransitive 'almalik'. Each one of the two vowels can be elided so we get the variants 'malk' and 'mlik'. Note that the complete stem 'malik' is almost never used except in the adjective 'malikmalikba'. The 'malk' form is the one used in compounds such as 'malk-aating', 'malk-tang', 'malk-ting', 'malk-uung' and 'malkmalk-ting'.

- Gramatical:
In variation with 'malng' and 'mling', where one of the vowels falls. Note that the complete stem is rather rare. Generally the 'malng' variant is used when suffixed with tense, and the 'mling' variant when suffixed with subordinator. The intransitive to die is derived from it by prefixation of 'al-' as in 'almaling'.
