Participial Forms.* 



I — Thee: nimiolun; tayowe k'nimiol; nimiolozvun; tayozue k'nimiolo. 

 I — Him-Her: nimian; tayowe nimia; nimiazvizvim ; tdyozve nimidzvi. 

 I — It: nimi'toan; tayowe nimi'to(n) f nimi'tozvizvun; tayozue nimi- 



^ The n-iorm seems to be optional. 



'tozvi. 

 I — You: tayowe k'nimolpa; tdyozve k'nimiol 6' pa. 

 I — Them (An.) : tayowe nimiuk ; tdyozve nimiazvizvuk. 

 I — Them (Inan.) : nimi'toanul ; nimi'tozmzvanul. 



Thou — Me: nimihiyin; nimihizviyin. 



* These forms are used in subordinate as well as in hanging clauses; thus, 

 nimiolun, '(when) I see thee,' is also expressed by the finite construction, 

 tayowe k'nimwi. In many instances the purely participial form seems to be 

 lacking, as in I-You, I- Them, etc. I believe, however, that there are participial 

 forms for all the combinations; possibly forms which my Indian informant 

 did not happen to think of at the moment. In the kindred Canadian Abenaki, 

 it is possible to place purely participial forms for all almost all the possible 

 phrases (Prince, Miscellanea Linguistica in Onore di Graziodio Ascoli, p. 358, 

 Ascoli Memorial).
