Such sentences are parallel to the following:

Aka.x k"iti.taki.sa ? ‘Who is this for?'
this who

 

 

Uka.x juma.taki.w. ‘That is for you.' (La Paz)
that 2p

 

 

-fRa.taki occurs in all dialects. -fi.taki
occurred in Huancané by the three-vowel morphophonemic
rule (4-3.22.16). In Jopoqueri -fi.taki occurred in
free texts and in one sentence translated from Spanish.
Data are insufficient at present to determine the sig-
nificance of the vowel drop in Jopoqueri. A distinction
of subordinating (purposive) and nonsubordinating func-

tions may be involved. Examples:

K'iti ut.j.i.t sara.fi.taki ? ‘Is there someone to go?'
who 3+3. go ~ (Jopoqueri)
S

 

Yati.ga.fia.taki.w jut.ta. ‘I've come in order to learn.'
Tearn 133 (Jopoquer i)
S

 

 

The second example above is clearly a purposive subordi-
nated to the verb jut.ta 'I've come'. Other examples
