Memmortigi is rarely used as a verb, and sinmortigo only shows up as a verb one time. As he said, most (but not all) appearances of memmortigi include the reflexive pronoun. Again, my subjective impression is that sinmortigi is the "right" way to say it. | |

Not that I have very comprehensive experience, but it seems that if "memmortigo" were vastly more common, I would have seen it in use at some point. :-/ | |
