his bag, bosom-fold, pocket”; farther on, similarly, the corresponding verb with animate 
object, osiico/wito, specialized: “bring (animal) under shelter.”

verb given inanimate actor (ilikdw). 
* For anih itik ; the sandhi is often carried from a quotation over to the verbs of 
saying, itaw (transitive), itw&w (intransitive).
