 Tuesday (Dû'sātā).

table (dâ'bî). Eng. loanword.

turkeys (dâikîs). Loanword, also in D. tschikenum turkey, from Eng. ‘chicken.’ Abn. nahama; N. neyhom = turkey.

turnips (dânŭ'ps). Eng. loanword.

Thursday (Dō'zātā).

rabbit (dŭ'ksâs) = Stiles tupsaas; a pure Pequot word. Cf. RW. wautuckques and N. mohtukquasog, pl. rabbits, from a different stem.

he falls down (dŭ'ksŭnî'), perhaps cogn. with N. nu'kshean it falls down. Cf. Abn. pagessin it falls, said of a thunderbolt.

mortar (dŭkwâ'ng) = N. togguhwonk; RW. tácunuk; Abn. tagwaôgan; D. tachquahoakan, all from the stem seen in N. togkau he pounds. See.

what ails you? (dŭn kĕtîâ'ĭ). Dŭn = Abn. tôni what; ke is the 2d pers.; t is the infix before a stem beginning with a vowel, and îâĭ is the verb ‘to be.’ Cf. Abn. tôni k-dâyin? ‘how are you,’ or ‘where are you?’

night, dark (dŭ'pkwŭ) = Abn. tebokw. Loc. of dŭpkwŭ is dŭpkwŭg.

, pl. eenug man (în, î'nŭg) = N. ninnu, seen also in Abn. -winno, only in endings. Cf. Ojibwe inini. Trumbull says, in [https://archive.org/details/natickdictionary0000trum/page/292/mode/1up ND. 292], that N. ninnu emphasizes the 3d pers., and through it the 1st pers. Thus, noh, neen, n’un ‘he is such as this one’ or ‘as I am.’ Ninnu was used only when speaking of men of the Indian race. Missinûwog meant men of other races. See.

, he says, say it; imv. (î'wō, î'wâš). This contains the same stem as Abn. i-dam he says it. Cf. also RW. teagua nteawem what shall I say? In Peq. nĕ-îwō = I say, without the infixed -t.

. See.

, you (ge). This is a common Algonquian heritage. Cf. N. and RW. keen; D. ki; Oj. kĭn; Abn. kia; Pass. kĭl; Micmac keen; etc.

he is angry (gî'škwŭdŭ) is apparently not equivalent to N. musquantum (acc. to Trumbull from musqui red and -antum a state of mind?). Also Abn. muskwaldam.

wash thyself (gî'štŭtŭš) = N. kutchissetaush wash thyself; Abn. kaziljômuk.

day in, q. v. (gîsk). See.

day (gî'z’kŭd) = C. kesukod, RW. keesakat, N. kesuk, Abn. kisgad, D. gischquik.
