^ If correctly recorded, this shows us the form of the preterit corresponding to indica- 
tive kwaskunik : “the other rouses him.” The lengthened form of the stem, kwdskw- 
for kuskw-, would be normal for archaic reduplication, kakwdskxv-. 
* Perhaps read uyapihtdwdw ; one expects utdy-apihtdwdw, At-preterit mth subject 
“they.”
