§ 30. Indirect Object of Third Person -ux (-a^x) 



Each language has a number of verbal expressions that require the 

 presence of a direct and indirect object. Such verbs are, as a rule, 

 distinguished from other stems by means of some grammatical con- 

 trivance. Siuslaw uses for that purpose the suffix -ux added to the 

 bare stem. This suffix, however, is used oxAj when the third per- 

 son (singular, dual or plural) is the indirect object of the sentence. 

 As soon as the first or second person becomes the indirect object, 

 another suffix, -Eints, is used (see § 31). 



The pronoun expressing the subject of the action always follows 

 the suffix -ux.

§ 31. Indirect Object of First and Second Persons -Emts 



This suffix is used only with verbal stems that require a direct and 

 indirect object. The direct object expressed by this suffix is always 

 the third person, while the indirect object must be either a first or 



§§ 30-31
