(b) Tlio reflexivo thl or l is employed in the sccond person (and in a 
few cases the second reflexivo p) with vowel roots and consonants, e.g. : 
1, O-navi ; 2, ALA-nam ; 3, 1-nam ; 1 pl., NA-nam or YA-nam, arrive. 
(c) There are two forms of conjugation with vowel roots ; the first 
introduces y into the first person, and marks the third, e.g. : 
1, OY-aj ; 2, Aj ; 3, Y-aj ; 1 pl. NAY-aj ; strike. 
(d) The second employs t in the same way, e.g. : 
1, 02' -ose ; 2, Ose ; 3, T-ose ; 1 pl., NAT-ose ; kick. 
9. There are two forms of the personal pronoun in Vejoz : 
O -Mam or HO-thlam Ápi-yam or Hápi-yam I 
AM áp-am or Háp-am thou 
Mam, eth, e dp-e or Hdp-e he, she, it 
A dialectal form of Ho-thlam is NO-thlam, and the o or lio pro- 
nominal partióle of the first person becomes no, whicli is the objective 
“ me,” where the lio is used as nominative, e.g. aj-no (strike me, obj.) ; 
ho-yaj (I strike, nom.). It is evident, therefore, that in Vejoz the pre- 
fixes are contracted forms of the personal pronouns : 
lio, I ; a, thou ; i or e, he, she, it ; na or ya, we. 
10. The reflexive Ma or la of the second person is also used in 
Choroti and Suhin : 
V. M-apil ; Ch. M-ape ; S. M-apik, return thou (thyself). 
P is reflexive in Vejoz, Choroti, and Lengua-Mascoy : 
V. p-apha, sit down ; Ch. p-a, sit down ; L.-M. i-ma-p, be thou held. 
11. The chief variation from the Vejoz in Choroti is the a of the 
first person, in Suhin lia or s, in Toba s or sh : 
V. 
1. o-y-aj 
2. aj 
3. y-aj 
strike 
Ch. 
1. a-y-ape 
2. ape 
3. y -ape 
return 
S. 
1. h-apik 
2. apile 
3. y -apile 
return (cf. 1 p. S’nam, 
I arrive) 
T. 
1. s-a, mi 
2. aw-ami 
3. y -ami 
give (cf. 1 p. ashile, I go) 
The s is also used in the first person in Choroti : 
S-ae, I strike S-a, I die Si-to, I am strong 
A second set of verbs in Toba are formed with the n prefix : 
1. NYJU-sok 2. AN-solc 3. NE-solc prick, sting 
The plurals throughout the group (excepting Lengua-Mascoy) fol- 
low more or less the order of the singular with varying plural particles.
