45(> GRAMMAll OF THE KLAMATH LANGUAGE. 



The only differencefrom this lies in the circumstance that in some verbs in 

 -n, -na the n is decidiioiis, while in others it maintains itself through all the 

 verbal forms. To these latter belong those verbs which have a simple form 

 besides the form in -na: hi'idsha to ran, hudshna to run to some distance ; gi'ika 

 to climb, gukna to climb some way up, etc.; also the verbs originally ending in 

 -ina, as gasaktchna to follow. 



1. The verbs in -n. They are very limited in number and terminate 

 in -an or -in (utchin to fish with net, and others on page 357); they preserve 

 the -n in the declarative mode of the absolute and distributive form, present 

 tense, but drop it in the future tense, the conditional mode, the participles 

 and verbals of both forms.
