(h). Noun with its apposition. 



Nouns with their appositions form a peculiar and rather frequent class 

 of nominal compounds. In the mutual position of both there is a certain 

 freedom, as the apposition precedes the noun just as often as it follows it. 

 The apposition occupies the first place in : 



Aishish kai nu sha liloia I Aishish I am swinging my sword, 193; 10. 



hishuiikga=k6hiegsh hog-orphan. 



nibi'ishaksh tuek(')tkish borer made of obsidian.

skukskiil'm spirit-fish, viz., "fish containing a dead person's soul." 



skiilhash pe't nmbulance-hed. 



tchatcha=p'lii sweet sap of the sugar pine. 



The apposition stands after the noun in : 

 1 snawii'dsh you as a woman, 58, If); cf .59, 2. G.
