a papakahAuiiigiitc^ ; a — tc^ [§ 29]; -gu- [§ 41]; pa- [§ 25]; pdk- 



[cf. ap>apagepijdhkimnitc'' 68.13] to tap; -a- [§ 8]; -h- [§ 21]; 



note that the subject grammatically must be animate) 



A double object is clearly to be seen in 344.5, 7, L5, 24; 346.8: but 



unfortunately I can not completely analyze the form; pdpdldfa.ma.'iv- 



is a variant for pap Ag At Amaw-^ and the double object is clear (pd- 



[§ 25]; pAgA- [pagi-} to strike with a club). 



A couple of examples where the subject is the third person plural, 

 and the direct object third person singular (or plural), with the second 

 person singular as indirect object, are — 



XslpyiiKigb^^ they will bring them to j^ou 348.3 {lil—gog^ [§ 28]; pyd- 



motion hitherward [§ 16]; -t- [§ 21] and 

 \iihawnt2L.gZ^g they will fetch them to you 348.4 (for kl — gog^ [§ 28] 

 by contraction [§ 10]; -h- [§ 8]; aiva- variant of dwA- to fetch 

 [§ 16]; -t- [§§ 8, 21]). The -d- is the same objective pronominal 

 element seen in ne — a?/;«, I'e — ^pwa^ etc. [§ 28]; a — ^tci^ a — awdtci^ 

 etc. [§ 29]; -a.sa, -a.icdsa [§ 30]; -ata, -Mcigi^ -atcini, -mmtcini, etc. 

 [§ 33]. 

 Allied to the double object is the treatment of a possessed noun as 

 the object of a transitive verb. Dr. Jones has treated the possessed 

 noun of the third person as the object of a transitive verb of the third 

 person [§ 34]. But there are other cases. 



Thus mmlcdmJ- 7ietdwAtiigw^ she carried my sacred bundle away 

 326.24; 328.5, 14; 330.2 {?ie- [§ 45]; ne—gw" [§ 28]; -a- as above; -t- 

 [§ 28]; d/rA- [a?ra-] to carry away; -t- [§ 8 or § 21?]). As far as the 

 verb is concerned, the structure is the same as in neka'kit^gw^ she has 

 hidden it from me 326.17 {I'al-i- is an initial stem meaning to con- 

 ceal). Furthermore, it should be noted that although the noun is 

 inanimate, -a- is animate. An example of where the possessed noun 

 is the first person plural (inch) and the subject is the second person 

 singular is kQtah/lonVixV klliawAiniy^'^ thou wilt take our (inch) 

 DRUM ALONG 348.9 (J^e—umi' [§ 45]; -t- [§ 45]; Jd—dw<' [§ 28]; -h- [§ 8]; 

 airA- a variant of dwA-\ -n- [§ 21]). Observe that ako'kon^ (348.1(>, 17) 

 DRUM is inanimate, as shown by the termination ^ (§ 42); and that the 

 pronominal elements of \KQta'ko'hm\xiV are inanimate; nevertheless the 

 pronominal elements incorporated in the verb are animate.^ 



Two kinds of participles drop the final sign of the subject, and take 

 on a lengthened termination when it becomes necessary for them to 

 enter into a relation involving the use of -n* as a final ending. One 

 is the transitive participle with an animate subject and an inanimate 

 object; the nominative ending of this participle is -g*^.
