Description:
The term 'kepecual' is a compound word composed of 'kepe', 'across, opposite', and 'cual', ' bear, carry'. It appears to be a calque of the English word 'transport'. Grammarians consider it to be rootless in the sense that it does not fully act like a derivative of cual, a skurun verb in a verbal context. Instead, it is considered to have a base happat valence in a verbal context.
