RADICES OF PREDICATIVE SIGNIFICATION. 



This class comprehends all roots which cannot, from our present knowl- 

 edge of the language, be referred to one of the three categories preceding. 

 Their signification is more concrete and specific than that of the pronom- 

 inal roots, and points to some action or quality. We include here, also, 

 the thematic or secondary roots, as lak in laklAkli, etc. Cf. p. 249. 

 Instances of predicative roots are as follows: 

 pat in patpAtli, mpata. kta in kt4-i. 



shu in shum. le in shl^a, Idltki, etc. 



litch in litchlftchli, litchtakia. . mets in metsmetsli. 



The adjectives formed by iterative reduplication and by the suffix -li 

 probably all contain thematic roots, ultimately reducible to shorter forms; 

 cf "Phonetic structure", pp. 248 sqq , "Phonetic alteration of the root", 

 pp. 253 sqq.
