These non-volitional verbs and adjectives may be used<br />

voitionally, with obligatory proclitic, when the subject is<br />

not an experiencer, but rather a doer, in the sense that he<br />

makes a conscious effort to perform the activity or to have<br />

the feeling denoted by the verb or adjective. However, if<br />

one likes something because it interests one, it is<br />

expressed with an enclitic, as in (84). An expression in<br />

that form is a neutral statement. On the other hand, when<br />

one makes a conscious effort to like something, the sentence<br />

will be in the form of (85). It is not a neutral statement.<br />

It is useful to note that prohibitions and denials with non-<br />

volitional verbs and adjectives are frequently expressed in<br />

this form.<br />

94. Bek neu-yakin that peue nyang ji-peugah bak<br />

Don't 2r-sure very what which 3y-say at<br />

surat-kaba.<br />

newspaper<br />

'Don't believe too much in what they say in<br />

newspapers.'<br />

95. Pane-na lon-beureusen ateueh jih.<br />

NEG 1-sneeze on he<br />

'I did not sneeze on him.'<br />

Note that enclitics are also obligatory with some of<br />

the words in Table 5 when followed by an object. This is<br />

discussed in 4.5.
