BOAS] HANDBOOK OF INDIAN LANGUAGES — SIUSLAWAN 549 



The subjective pronouns may at times perform the function of 

 the possessive suffixes. This is especially true in the case of the 

 pronoun for the first person singular when used in connection with a 

 demonstrative pronoun.

ADVERBIAL SUFFIXES (§§ 89-96) 

 § 89, Introductory 



Siuslaw expresses all adverbial relations derived from nouns by 

 means of suffixes, that precede even the pronominal suffixes. Of 

 these, the local suffixes indicating motion and rest, and the local suffix 

 expressing the ablative idea from, can be added only to the locative 

 forms of the noun (see § 86). It is rather interesting to note that there 

 is no special suffix denoting instrumentality. This idea is either ex- 

 pressed by means of the locative -a (see § 86), or it is conveyed through 

 the medium of the local suffix of motion -tc (see § 90) and of the local 

 -ya (see § 93), or it may be contained in the suffix of modality -itc 

 (see § 94). All these ideas are so closely interwoven with that of in- 

 strumentality, that the instrumental use of elements denoting primarily 

 objects, motion, and modality, presents no difficulty whatsoever. 



§ 90. Local Suffix Indicating Motion -tc 



It is added to the locative forms of the noun (see § 86), and may be 

 best rendered by to, into, at, on, upon, towards.
