Appendix E: Location Verbs
Each of these verbs specifies a location and nothing else. These each should be understood as having ‘be’ as part of its translation: ‘be on deep water,’ ‘be here,’ and so on. Any of these could be the main verb of a sentence such as ʔáckʷɬ st ‘We are on deep water.’ A few, such as ʔíyəcən, can function as either location or motion verbs. For details on the meaning and use of these, look them up in the Klallam Dictionary.
