pya' kago'a ‘“‘you would not come quickly,” awi’ta tipdnemo’- 
‘kago A ‘‘we should not be satisfied in our (incl.) minds’’ [potential 
subjunctives: see §35.6; at 40.28 and 60.25 respectively], ka’ta.... 
iniinemi' yadgdig*™ ‘do not think of them (an.),” uw?’yawawi ka’ta 
kwinata’wi‘cinawa'v’ ydgdg*** “do not try to trouble their body” 
[prohibitives; at 54.16 and 50.40, respectively]. 
§33. A wholly anomalous intransitive inanimate plural in - gigi 
occurs at 32.7. The table contains a number of false forms which, 
however, are unimportant for this text. Other anomalous forms 
are mdyowt''segint at 28.13 and mdydwi'se’nigin at 28.28. At 18.3 
a participial is found that begins with &- which is proper to the 
conjunctive, not participial mode. 
§34. Amaw- appears as -amawo- before -me*%tc, the third per- 
son animate of the conjunctive of the independent passive with ob- 
viatives as subjects, on which see I. J. A. L. 1, 56: wépi‘sa*ka‘ama’- 
womettc® ‘‘when the offering began to be made to him,’ 50.15. 
See also 62.16. 
-amd- occurs before the reflexive suffix -ti‘so-: see 58.29, 42.42. 
That this is an ancient formation is shown by the evidence of 
Algonkin, Ojibwa, and Montagnais: see Cuoq, Grammaire de la 
langue Algonquine, §225; Baraga, Dictionary of the Otchipwe 
Language under wabandamadis (nin); Lemoine, Grammaire Montag- 
naise, 53 bottom. 
-Amo 1-, an anomalous formation though paralleled by -am@hi- at 
Jones, Fox Texts 374.11, is to be found at 60.7. 
§41. There are‘a number of passive formations that occur in the 
text which have not been previously treated. 
(a) Corresponding to -me*%tc’’ of the conjunctive of the inde- 
pendent passive with obviatives as subjects, we have -met® in the 
subjunctive: ku’‘semete ‘‘if he were feared,”’ 18.22 [with full-sounding 
terminal vowel]. 
(b) An independent passive in -d'so- is found: mind’‘soyagwe 
‘‘we (ncl.) are given,’ 58.16. A similar formation is found in 
Shawnee. The posterior part certainly resembles the suffix -‘so- of 
the middle voice. 
(c) A passive composed of the ordinary passive sign -gu- and imme- 
diately followed by a copula -‘si- for the animate, -at- for the 
inanimate occurs: wit aneminene kdneta'gu'sit ‘‘he is the one who 
will continue to be blessed,” 40.48; dgwi wit aneminene kinetaigu’‘si- 
dtein™* ‘‘he will not continue to be blessed,” 42.1; awi’ta neno‘ta- 
gwa’tenr's ‘it would not be heard,” 5823. Evidently the Kick- 
apoo passive mentioned by me in Jones’ Kickapoo Tales, 196, be- 
longs here. Cree, Montagnais, Ojibwa, and Algonkin have a similar 
formation. It may be added that the ¢ of -at- disappears as usual
