-dagwa and -daba^n on the one hand, and of -fgwa and -H'^lan on the 

 other, is determined by the same phonetic conditions as differentiate 

 Schemes II and III. A third personal plural in -fan (apparently = -ir 

 + -han) is also found: de'H'an in front of them 190.13 (but de'^da 

 BEFORE HIM 59.14); xa'^-s' ogwl' H' an between them (see below, p. 

 240); wa'H'an to them 160.15. A form in -xa seems also to occur 

 with third personal plural signification: wa'xa ts-.'im'Hs-.'anx he got 



ANGRY AT THEM; dlhaUXa AFTER THEM, BEHIND THEIR BACKS 132.13. 



The number of local elements that directly take on possessive suf- 

 fixes seems fairly considerable, and includes both such as are body- 

 part and local prefixes in the verb (e. g., da¥-) and such as are used 

 in the verb only as local prefixes (e. g., wa-, dal-) ; a few seem not to 

 be found as verbal prefixes. Not all adverbially used verbal pre- 

 fixes, however, can be inflected in the manner of daVde and wade (e. g., 

 no "^Tiade can be formed from Tia-). A number of body-part and local 



stems take on a noun-characteristic : 



* 



Jiaw-an- under (from lia-u-) 

 xa'^-ham-de} about my waist (from xd°--) 

 The local elements that have been found capable of being followed 

 by pronominal affixes are : 



da¥de over me (56.9; 110.18); 186.4, 5 



wade tome (56.15; 60.1; 63.14; 88.13; 150.18; 194.1) 



xd^-Tiamde about my waist 



gwelda'' under it 190,17 



gwe^nda (in Gwenda yu'sd"' = being at its nape, i. e., east of it) 



dl^^da close in back of him, at his anus 138.2 



dinde hehind me (?= verb-prefix (Z^^- anus, behind + noun-char- 

 acteristic -ri-) (86.9; 138.3; 170.1) 



Tiawande under me (71.1, 5, 12) 



gelde in front of me, for (in behalf of) me 



dede in front of me (59.14; 124.20) 



Jhd^yade around me 



lie'^^daFda beyond him 148.9 



Tia'nda across, through it 



da'Wgwan among themselves 98.2 



gwen-lia-ude at my nape ; gwen-haUfgwa in back of his own neck 

 75.2 



di-ha-ude after I went away, behind my back (132.10; 186.8; 

 192.4) 



1 It Is only tlie different schemes of personal endings that, at least in part, keep distinct the noun xaaJiam- 

 BACK and the local element xaaham- on back, about waist: xdiha'm his back, but laalia'mda on his 

 BACK, AT HIS WAIST; xaaha'mdam our backs and on our backs.
