scratch

Rick,
Is "foxekavapa" the right word for scratching an itch?  It doesn't seem so.

foxekavapa - scratch, score, gash, gouge.
  Keep in mind that the root "foxekav" is a state root, and
  that the adjective form "foxekavo" means
  'scratched/scored/gashed/gouged'. The noun meaning
  'scratch/gash/gouge' is the "associated position noun"
  derivation "foxekavaymi". [Etym: small/low polarity +
  CRACKED/SPLIT]
