Secondary palatalization (morphological)
All consonants, with the exception of <ꞌ> and <y> may be palatalized preceding <y>, which encodes third person arguments and possession. Unlike primary palatalization, this does not change the consonant’s primary place of articulation but adds a [+palatal] feature.
