afyu cil In dV-li'ye surely, indeed, nothing it turned out to be 



tso la^ U kioad'myahd'ya now they came to know it 92.14 



When suffixed to the negative particle in, or to the contracted forms 

 of In + the personal pronouns (see § 9), it forms new particles, I'nlye, 

 nl'ye^ emye, etc., which were always rendered by no longer, i no 



LONGER, THOU NO LONGER, etc. 



U I'nlye kwaafnlya they no longer know it 50.18, 19 



nl'ye i^xii'ms I am no longer sick 



ernye hanL dPl you will no longer (be) something 104.1 



It appears as a suffix to the stem he'nl-, forming a compound 

 Ke'nlye a while, long time. 



he'nlhen tVvnxEin many times it coiled 88.1 {-en multiplicative 



suffix [see § 75]). 

 he'nlye ux we'ldnl a long time they two fought (together) 132.8

It takes the place of the inchoative suffix -live (see § 32) in verbs not 

 expressing a transitive, active idea, or not transitivized by the transi- 

 tive suffix -e'nl. (See also § 19.) 



qamill'ye (he) commenced to swim 30.3 



ux qayuwatl'ye they two commenced to travel 12.6 



'fits conveys an active transitional idea. The difference between 

 this suffix and -lye lies in the fact that the change indicated by the 

 latter came about without any apparent active cause; while -i^ts 

 expresses a change from one state into another, that presupposes a 

 subject of the action. It is hence best rendered by to change one 



INTO.
