Notes

  1. Kari had ngiyix, based on Chapman's xoiyûˊq 'under'. LH read this as yix.
  2. Chapman/Kari gloss xiyiɬchet 'they took her', but the word also means 'they married her', and below she is referred to as 'wife'.
  3. Kari has dinanighixɬ'anin, an optative form, based on Chapman's dĕˊnna nûˊxûhlaˊnan.
  4. Kari has niɬq'aginiɬnek, based on Chapman's nĭhlk'aˊgĭnĭhlneˊk.
  5. LH unusually says vinxaɬyiq where vinxuɬyiq is more common. (She has this in the next sentence.)
  6. 'they slept'; i.e. nights passed.
  7. Kari has the expected form dinanidhuxɬ'an.
  8. Chapman translates yeq simply as yeq ); i.e. no English translation is provided.
  9. LH spontaneously added yux, assumed to be 'you (pl.)', but this pronoun is normally yuxunh.
  10. Kari has nixididatl, but LH produced ntr'ididatl.
  11. Chapman has qaiĕdtdaˊn 'another year' qûtdĭçĭtdyaˊk 'they said'. The gloss of the second word is surely wrong, and Kari interpreted this form as xiydanxutithidaq 'they spent another year'. LH was not sure about this word.
  12. LH said nigidhidhet, assumed to be a speech error for vigidhidhet.
  13. Kari has tr'idineyo, based on Chapman's trĭtdĭnneyoˊ translated 'he went'.
  14. LH really lenites the first two syllables, producing something like ngogh. Kari has ngidhux degighghudhigan for this sentence.
