Datapoint Nengee/Comparative standard marking

My own elicitation with speakers of Pamaka suggest that pasa 'surpass' is only possible with elements such as langa 'long', bigi 'big', satu 'short'.
Huttar & Huttar (1994: 290) say "there are a few adjectival verbs which cannot occur in this construction, including yonkuu 'young', lontu 'round', siki 'sick', and taanga 'difficult' (but taanga in the sense of 'hard' [...] can)."
