BRANCH 6: SENSES
In this Branch we will begin using words which connect us to our senses such as see, hear, smell, and taste. There are two ways to talk about each sense, for example, I see it vs. I see h/her. We will practice the “I” and “You” forms here.
nənámihton
I see it
kənámihton
You see it
nənòtamən
I hear it
kənòtamən
You hear it
nənámihα
I see h/her
kənámihα
You see h/her
nənòtawα
I hear h/her
kənòtawα
You hear h/her
Here we will demonstrate a simple question and answer with the negative response. For example: Do you see it? I don’t see it./ Do you see her? I don’t see h/her.
