350 PRINCE, SPECK—-DYING AMERICAN SPEECH-ECHOES. [Nov. 6, 
Gikwi did ‘‘ you sleep there,’’ from 4=2 p.+hawi “sleep” 
(=Del. gauwin, Aben. kawi); diéd=talli ‘“‘there.’’ Cf. Peq. 
dai=dali, Aben. az; da/i after a vowel. 
Kigitinon « get a drink”? (so Harris); I think the full form is 
k stkagitinon ‘we (incl.) shall drink,’’ see below s. v. wichowan. 
Kédgi is the same stem seen in Peq. gehiwit ‘*he is drunk’’ (Prince 
and Speck, Anthrop., V, p.'206), but it also occurs in Del. 42 kaki- 
wus ** thou art drunk.” m 9 : 
Kanukwok ‘private parts,’’ a plural of 4inkdi. (g. v.), is 
probably.a N. E. loanword from the same stem as Natick dinuk- 
kinum ‘he mixes, mingles’; cf. Nat. Renugke ‘among.’ In 
modern Peq. hanithi ‘“privates.”’ 
Kinkdi, given a Harris as ‘‘anus,’’ undoubtedly means either 
“ membrum virile’? or “* pudendum femina,”’ 7. e. ‘the mixer.” 
It seems to be the singular of hanikwok, Q. U. 
Kwon ‘‘yes"’-is undoubtedly identical with Del. gohan ‘‘ yes” 
(Brinton, Lenape Dict., p. 45, 2). 
Mamitickkic “devil” is a corruption of manitikhit Bai is the: 
(evil) spirit.”’ Note in Natick mastanttoog ‘‘devils.’" In Del. 
manito is the regular word for ‘‘ ae God’’; cf. Aben. madahido 
“«devil’’; Peq. muzundo ‘‘ God.”’ 
Manuk is a-very interesting survival of a New England a 
word, 7. ¢., from Nat. monak ‘“‘an English coat, a petticoat ’’; cf. _ 
RW. maunek <* a European garment ”’ (see Natick Dict., p. 266). 
Niskéhikian must stand for ' miskahikian Scien widen is a 
derivative from Del. masgichien ‘‘ May apple’. (Len. Dict., p. 
74, 19): 
_ LV'piimids is translated by Harris ‘ barn,’’ but is clearly a 
form of Del. mzbahwi, 7. e.=n ’ piwids as eit the men ’?; cf. the 
Del. xidahwi and Aben. 2/6é/w7 ‘in the night-time.’ 
Nini Le ‘‘lift up’’ must. be a reduplicated form of Del. nipachton 
‘raise up.’” “I think the guttural breathing should have been on 
the third a ae ipsulgaas: 
Riitig “¢crushed corn ’’; Peq. yokeg ; Nat. xuhkik, lit. -** some- 
terminate vowel similar to a short €. The consonants have the same values as in 
English, except f=s and ‘, which is a soft rough breathing like the Arabic 
medial 4. * In the Abenaki the 6 is a nasal asin French om in mon.- The Natick 
and Narragansett words are quoted in the English system which was followed by 
Eliot and Roger Williams, while the Delaware material is given in the German, 
notation, following the usage of Brinton’s Lenape Dictionary.
