Participles. 



There are none of the impersonated kind. 



The personated are formed, as usual, by the " me" suffix added to the tense 

 forms, e. g.

Jayime. Jayisime. Jayinime, 



and so on through the 9 tense forms. 



Singular. Dual. Plural. 



Jatime. Jatisime. Jatinime, 



and so on through the 9 tense forms above. 



* This is the formula of the passive, because the passive only requires that the 

 first person be the patient, allowing the 2nd or 3rd to be the agent, and hence the 

 indicative of this form so nearly tallies with that of the passive, jayi, eat me he 

 or thou, &c.
