INDONESIAN ANNOTATIONS ON THE VOCABULARY. 145 
framework is of the type i-i or i-e as shown in the forms 56-6r. 
Common to Indonesia and Melanesia are the forms iru (39 and 8) 
and ilu (50 and 9), and close similarity is exhibited in many other 
forms. 
The stem consonant s remains unchanged in Indonesia far less 
frequently than we have found it in Melanesia; it is found in 54, 55, 
67, and 68, of which the last-cited displays an anomaly. A mutation 
from weak to strong is observed in the passage to din 43. In general 
it shows a greater tendency to weakening than has been the case in 
Melanesia. We find mutation to the liquids quite common, to r in 
39-42, 45-47, 56, and 62-64; to 1 in 48, 50, 51, 57,and 58. Mutation 
to the nasals, a brief step short of the liquids, is found to n in 44, 52, 
53, 61, 65, and 66. ‘The mutation to j (y) in 49 is in the direction of 
extinction and forms a ready bridge to the loss of the stem consonant 
in 59, 60, and possibly 69. The prefaces, of equal application to isu 
and usu forms, are such as we have seen in Melanesia, n in 45, 46, 
51-53, 59-61, and 66; ng in 47-49, 65 and 69; 1 in 55; and in addition 
the aspirate in 40. The form 55 lisu is of peculiar moment, because 
we are able to trace it on the line of transit through the Dampier- 
Vitiaz Strait (30 Tami) along the very interesting southern Solomon 
region as far as Maewo in the New Hebrides. Final consonants 
occur as n in 41, 46, 54, 59, and 61; ng, in 42, 43, 47-49, 58, and 63. 
We have added syllables na in 62, ni in 60, nu in 51, ra in 53. 
While there is a wide variety of forms in the three language areas, 
the mutation system is readily acceptable, and the isu and usu 
types are so satisfactorily spaced along the migration track that we 
can feel convinced of the substantial unity within the variety of this 
word.

We have here no material additional to that which has been recorded 
in the consideration of the word in connection with its appearance 
in the Subanu. In Indonesia we find but three forms which preserve 
the t of the Polynesian which enters so largely into Melanesian use, 
but these three quite suffice for purposes of identification. All other 
Indonesian forms are readily discoverable in Melanesia except 45 
aina and 47 nin, forms which are substantially established by Indore- 
sian resemblances.
