Interrogatives appear at the end of the sentence. When the emphatic ''hen'' co-occurs, it disappears but triggers palatalization of the final consonant of the interrogative: | |||

| IPA = | |||
| morphemes = whatevs | |||
| gloss = INTERROG-evs-NUMB | |||
| translation = Whatever | |||
}} | |||
The independent form of the interrogative suffix, ''rin'', is used to form yes-no questions. Again, it undergoes palatalization before ''hen'', which itself is deleted. | |||

The verb ''útani'' "to choose" also has a suffix form, ''-tani'', which can attach to either a noun or a verb: | |||
