Wɛra rihku uhktɛrashki patawiku[edit source]

I suggest since the sentence refers to leaves falling regularly, use patakuku - keep both ku's for full transparency Rjmoore221 (talk) 15:16, 10 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Sap’aratohku yukatihch, uhkkosu likahta namu sihkpirakati.[edit source]

instead of pira, i suggest using ya- (to follow adj. ya- Tishlina forms like shihtuna ya- in the texts). Then take off the object prefix since it's an intransitive Tishlina to make ... likahta namu yakati. Rjmoore221 (talk) 15:25, 10 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Wɛra tihikashtihki raku(ku?)[edit source]

Raku for simple habitual, rakuku for relative clause Rjmoore221 (talk) 15:26, 10 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

So do we want to use the relativizer (-ku) to talk about the subset of sweetgum trees growing in the South, or do we want to use (-hch) to make it more temporal? NEwhinny (talk) 15:31, 10 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Wishiyimohku mashut’ahch, oni uhktahkishi yasha yatik[edit source]

Trying to say, "When someone's skin is bad, they would make tea." I think this needs reordering? NEwhinny (talk) 15:47, 10 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
