 voce man.

 voce fire ; di for bi, voce skin.

 of my paper for my proofs. 



M, conjunct ma suffix, as in Lepcha, 

 nyim voce day, and in Mru sham 

 voce hair. 



C Often cited with the du suffix as is 

 < d ze in Absne. See remarks on

 \ monised in its vowel. 



The same prefix conjunct.

 \ being the root.

 \ junct. 



T Cited to illustrate Tzii just remark-

 L a servile. 



f Aspirate chh = Ts and Tsh by 

 ] numerous examples, though the 

 J Tibetan alphabet has both let- 

 L ters. 



U' and Sti, are synonymes. U' is, 

 in fact, the basis of a whole series 

 of words for water.
