Metathesis ((17)) applies in response to the templatic requirement that prefix conjugation verbs have prefixes: the T-initiality constraint in (18). After first dual Fission has applied, prefix conjuga- tion Metathesis displaces the leftmost fissioned terminal to the left edge of the maximal projection of T0, generating a prefix. Example (38), along with the vocabulary entries in (37), shows how all these pieces fit together to derive discontiguous first person dual agreement in Omani Mehri:
