TIME SLOT (T) 



The grammatical function of a time slot with its filler is to specify 

 the relative time of an action. This slot is usually filled by one of the 

 temporals (see "Function Classes").

this way back soon will come I 



/ will come back soon- 



T P 



'e su 'e nd-nu cd'i'aizanu- 

 next day it occurred 

 The next day arrived. 



The T slot is sometimes filled by a phrase composed of two temporals 

 or of the negative, zazi, plus a temporal: 



T P 



sumi hdiha- zd'*'aiza-nu- 



already long ago it occurred 



It already happened long ago. 

 T S P 



'esgasku zdzi na sai zd^Ans 



but not yet all it is 



But this isn't all yet. 



As in the case of the D slot, a clause may occasionally occur with two T 

 slots, one preceding the P slot and the other following: 

 T p P T 



'i'emi duwe- ku ziydd^u sumi m4-nu- 



already this way south he passed already long time 

 It has been a long time since he passed by going south.
