Section 1.

"Winta, ' a part, a portion.'

Eloi, 'Grod,' a word taken from Elohim, is introduced into

the language of the aborigines, because Koin, the name of the

being whom they dread, is a word of an equivocal character.* Yantin, 'all, every,' is singular or plural, according to the

number of the noun or pronoun used with it. Kokera, 'a covert, shelter, habitation, hut, house, palace,

temple.' "Wittima, 'built'; hence wittimulliko, 'to build' in anyway;

to prepare a place for habitation by removing obstacles; to put

up a shelter of bushes or bark.
