Etymology
tei' = related to Shikathi: tähir (power)
-okai = mediopassive infinitive
Notes
related to Modern Shikathi: tähir akām

In Old and Modern Shikathi, "to be able to" is "to give oneself the power to" or " to empower oneself" Where Shikathi lost the separate mediopassive infinitive, Skairu retained it from Old-Shikathi.
