takhùgù ‘one by one’; tayauyyauɁ ‘one (person) by one’.
177. When the members of a doubled noun are nouns repeated with ta- (cf. 176) prefixed to both members, there is space juncture between them. The nouns used in this type of doubled noun are classifiers (141):
takhá takhá ‘from time to time’; tachéin takhá ‘from time to time’; takhá taléi ‘from time to time’; tayaussí tayaussí ‘one (person) after another’.
178. Doubled nouns with distributive force are used in questions requiring an enumeration (71).
hóu Ɂalán, bá Ɂayáun bá Ɂayáunlê ‘what color is that flag?’ khímbyâ θaŋéjîn, badú badúlê ‘who are your friends?’
