 yahomid after having gone with it 22, 27 is derived from isa'li-

The verbal suffix -tchamas is equivalent to the Creek suffix 

 -ankis, -angis, which comes nearest to our perfect : isayangis

 from circumstantial evidence; cf. 24, 31, limmilis and omas in

 causality, and becomes verbified in -ugas, -ukas.
