177. Ored (root ?), tighten ; oreds,

takht, carpet, in 226, 227. 
Uwetagh, I arrange,- see 168. 
172. Selik, for selikgh? Sidi Ibrahim 
(in Shilha) uses Arabic allik for " hang 
up : " hence, perhaps, selik as a causative. 
Ebsi, ebsih, take down ? Another verb 
is hesay, vomit. 
Ardlay, work ; arelenan, they work. Nek 
dralUn, I sow (a field), seems to be aghalun ;

not? tes tezak,merwar tezak? 
/ shake the milk {for making 
it souj'), autishagh netishnit 
eshahi akh. 
But Venture gives aghzdr for butcher, 
which points out a relation to Arab, jezzdr. 
Observe that aghards is "a road" in De- 
laporte's Kab. and Ibrahim's Shilha. [I 
suspect that agerassaragh should be aghe- 
rdsagh-ak, I butcher for thee.] 
Semelluagh would seem related to eme- 
leagh, I castrate (120. J, if the sense agreed 
better. 
Oshe, skin thou, is for oze ; in Kab. uz or 
azu.
