Description:

The term 'ikkaw' means 'never'. It is an Old Common work that looks like it is supposed to come from a combination of 'ik-' or 'ikky' and 'awke' or 'awnys'. It is used in the frequency position of the modifier sequence to express a negative in the sense that something never happens. In Common, a double negative is intensifying, so this can be combined with the negation particle 'ikky' for emphasis.
