Adjectives are quite rare as a base for forming a verb with the suffix -ig. Examples are fêst fixed > fêstigje to settle and rein clean > reinigje to clean. Other formations are prefixed, as be-wissigje to ascertain, from wis certain and next to converted bewisje. In one case, the same suffix also takes a numeral base. A nominal base is more frequent, however.
