Longer Kunwok words may jonsist of several parts, like a noun and a verb, e.g. English: haircut, weekend, daydream, fingerprint. Look at the following... see how predictable the meaning is:
* ''kebkan'': ''kunkeb'' "nose", ''kan'' "to get" -- sniff out (as in hunting with dogs)
* ''karekarrme'': ''kare'' "old", ''karrme'' "have" -- save for later
