padni, see parni. 



pa^ta, to strike (T. and S., pallta). 



paZu, by him or lior (causative case; T. and S., padlo) : 

 paZu gunta kadli, he beat the dog (lit., by-him 

 beating dog). 



pari, river (T. and S., parri). 



parkana, white (T. and S., perkanna). 



par'natatja, name of Amelia's father. She did not know 

 its meaning, but it is probably a relationship name, 

 and connected with (perhaps an inversion of) 

 "ngarpatyata," given by T. and S. as meaning ''son- 

 in-law." 



parni ka't'aiji, come here (T. and S., parni kauwai) ; 

 7;aiji parni :ta ja-^adli, I will come by and by; nundi 

 padni, go away ; adlati ninna pa^'ni padnita 1 when 

 will you come? parni and padni are perhaps only 

 variants of the same word expressing movement, 



pata'wilja, Glenelg (T. and S., pattawilya). Teichelmann 

 and Schtirmann do not explain this name (Amelia 

 also could give no explanation), but in their vocabu- 

 lary patta is given as ''a species of gumtree" and 

 wilya as ''foliage; young branches; brushwood." The 

 name Patawalonga, now applied to the river which 

 enters the sea at Glenelg, appears to be [patawilja] 

 with the locative suffix [-T^ka], i.e., [pata'wiljav^ka], 

 meaning "at Glenelg." 



pindjadu ka/a, make a fire! 



pinti, binti (T. and S., pindi, "the grave or habitation 

 of souls before birth and after death"); pinti'meju, 

 white man (T. and S., pindi meyu, European); 

 binti ju waZi, white man's house. 



puljuna, black (T. and S., pulyonna) ; kadli buljuna, 

 black dog. 



pu:lti, country towards the Semaphore; evidently the 

 same as Teichelmann's "yertabulti. Port Adelaide." 

 "Yerta" [jerta] means "land" and "bulti," in T. 

 and S., means "asleep." 



tan ' dan j a, site of Adelaide south of the Torrens (T. and 

 S., tandanya, site of South Adelaide). 



tar/'kaira, given by Amelia as her mother's name. She 

 did not know its meaning, but there can be little 

 doubt that it is the same word as "tangkaiira," given 

 by T. and S. as "a species of fungus." 



tappu, fly (T. and S., tappo) ; tappudna, flies. 



tidna, foot (T. and S., tidna). 



tinjara, boy (T. and S., tinyara).
