devoiced "n"

What got me thinking about this is the section in Carochi's grammar
where he talks about the purposive construction. At the very end of
folio 28v (page 116-117 in Lockhart's edition) he gives two variants
for the plural of the outgoing imperative: "-tih" and "-tin", and
concludes
by saying "ambos plurales don seguros". I just wonder how
interchangeable
these two pluralizers might be from region to region.
