agents and possessive

Tue Jun 15 14:41:23 UTC 2004

    I have a doubt. How do you form the agentive noun from a verb ending in NI like PATLANI and TZECUINI? platanini? (flyer, volador)? and tzecuinini (runner, corredor)?

    And what is the correct way to say "I am her friend"? NEHUATL NIICNIUH? (double I?) or "I am her mother" NIINAN???

    I'd appreciate any help.
    Thanks,
    Susana
