h. Words beginning with combinations of consonants do not always reduplicate 
in the manner described above, as it sometimes results in an accumulation of con- 
sonants in the middle of the word. If such inadmissible clusters should result, only 
the first consonant of the word is repeated. In such cases initial ¢ is transformed 
into k-. : 
pte plural ppté, door. gtlko'lug plural k-egtlké'lug, to scold. 
gtlho » tk xgtlké, to pray. qtsa'e »  hkxgqtsa'e, thick. 
(See, however, the words with initial ¢s. 
7. Words beginning with hw have in the plural him. When hw is considered as 
one syllable, the semi-vowel w standing for a weak w and m, the reduplicated form 
would be hwhw, which, when pronounced rapidly and with the following vowel, must 
naturally become him. I believe, therefore, that this plural must be included in the 
reduplications :— 
ha plural hia’, name. Anil plural hini'l, to do. 
hnilp »  hiini'lp, house. hid » hit’, to call. 
hwdt »  huwva't, to sell. Andu »  Aind'n, paddle.
