a'ctop! go qogo gitano'lcstx Hol they entered that little house 29.14 

 (o/ do they two go; -p. ' into; 170 there; gitano'lcstx hnymg their 

 smallness) 

 A distinct series, continiiinti; the idea in this manner are ya'Jcwa, 

 yau'a, e'wa, qewa, ya'xkewa. 



Related to these is the interrogative qd'xewa. All of these contain 

 the element -?/;«. They designate nearness and distance, but I am 

 unable to tell the difference in their use, which is rather indefinite. 

 According to their form ya'Jcwa ( =yaTc-wa) probably belongs with the 

 series designating position near the speaker, yau'a (=yau-wa) posi- 

 tion near the person addressed. The form etva seems to correspond 

 to the demonstrative position near the third person, while ya'xJcewa 

 always refers back to a place previously designated: thus just at 



THAT PLACE. 



ialcwa' goye' d'tcax here he did thus 65.21 igoye' thus; dtc- he 



her; -ax to do) 

 nekct md'ya iau'a do not go there! 185.17

he, intransitive; -l"i designates lack of object; -lest to look; 



we'wuLe inside of house) 

 id'xlcewa ne'xankd there (to the place pointed out) he ran 23.17 

 id'xlcewa ayuqund'etix't there (where he was shot) he fell down 



62.22 



The forms in -wa are used often to express the idea here — there: 

 e'wa e'nata, iau'a e'natai here on this side, — there on that side 



201.12 

 ia'hwa no'ix d'exat, iau'a ta'nuta no'ix d'exat here went the one 

 (feminine); there to the other side went the other 75.14 

 But we find also forms in -uk used in the same way — 



id'kiik agd'yutk iqe'sqes, ia'l^wa e'natai agd'yutk Icd'sa-it here on one 



side she put blue-jay, there on the other robin 50.4 

 Ld'yapc iakwa' , — io'lcuk id'mEllc his foot there, — here his thigh 

 174.15 

 The same adverb is not often repeated to indicate different direc- 

 tions or j)laces. 



id'ma iau'a md'yima; nakct iau'a mai'eme iLtd'yitn only there (up- 

 stream) go; do not go there downstream 192.9 



Generally repetition refers to the same places. 



iau'a acgixa'lulccigux, iau'a acgixa'lukctgux here they two threw 

 him down, here they two threw him down; i. e., they threw 

 him down again and again 26.8
