ya. A still more distant position is denoted by Tunica mz or ma, 
Chitimacha ma, Atakapa ma. Chitimacha makes several other dis- 
tinctions by the use of its demonstratives. There is a feminine ta 
already mentioned, and compared with the feminine personal pro- 
nominal affixes in the third person singular. It may also be related 
to the Tunica article ta, the only demonstrative which retains its 
position before the noun. The Chitimacha plural forms of the 
demonstratives ha and ta, hd and t6, are wanting in Tunica, although 
the open vowel suggests some connection with the stem of the word 
for all, 6 or hd. My Atakapa material contains only the first three 
demonstratives. 
In the following table I have placed all of the comparisons insti- 
tuted in the foregoing pages in compact form:
