And {bikla} "whip".  The most of these are facial in a broad sense, but the original "philosophical" idea was much more about gross bodily movements, muscle contractions at various points in the voluntary sets -- more like {bikla} in fact, but harder in general to find good words for.  "kick, blink, step (just lifting the foot, not the whole process), bend, straighten" are some relatively easy cases; harder ones are flexing a finger, raising a knee, and so on: the muscle components of all meaningful actions -- that is, the pieces deprived of meaning.

I don't supppose there is a complete list; it is pretty open-ended.  I don't remember what other cases were considered and rejected or what ignored or discovered too late.  There were a few of the first sort and more of the later.
