The final i in hachki is unexpected, and I don't have a good explanation for
it at the moment.  It's possible that the distributive pl is ita rather than
ta.

The following is a key for converting stems to citation forms:

Stem         Citation Form

i                e
a               e
u               o
ii                iia
ee             ee
aa             ee
oo             oo
uu              uua
ia              ia
ua             ua

So bi'tchii is the stem, and bi'tchiia is the citation form.
