I'd put the suffix on both ma korentu.

But I think that we don't know if it is correct yet. Maybe we need a confirmation from Frommer  ???

Almost. It's not si but sì ;)

So you should have written:

Irayo ma kewnya txamew'itan sì MIPP OR Irayo ma kewnya txamew'itan MIPPsì

I think hat suffix -ä should go both to ikran and palulukan. If it would go only to one that could be unclear. So for instant maktoyu inranä sì palulukan this would be (I only guess) "rider of an ikan and thanator", maybe in the meaning they both are hunting or something. While maktoyu ikran sì palulukanä may mean ikran (that is) a rider and of thanator. This second is quite odd, but...

I may be totally wrong, but this seem to be quite logical ;)

Yes, I agree with you, but it is a bit odd so I guess you'll need a confirmation from Frommer (if we dont have one yet). But, as far as we know, it's the most correct one.

Personally I would be really surprised if there would be other solution  ;)

The word for see is Tse'a, not T'sea.

So the sentece would be:

Oel tsìme'a meikranit

>> Oe-l ts<ìm>e'a me-ikran-it
>>> I-ERG see-REC.PAST banshee-DU-ACC
