Description:
The base meaning of the modifier 'ujók' is passing by, it takes a nominative object that is the thing passed by and its referent is the thing doing the passing.
Derived as a term, as a noun ujókyn means a bypass, or possible an evation. As a verb, it is a skurun transitive verb where the ergative subject does the passing by and the absolutive object is bypassed. It is peculiar that this verb is not a typical verb of motion using 'noxaj', but it might be explainable through its secondary meaning of to avoid.
If needed the intensified form roujókyn can be used to make clear that the meaning of evasion is intended.
The derivation 'ikujók' [i.gu'jok] means 'inevitable' or 'unavoiable'. Used as an adverb, it can express the idea that something must happen.
