25.2. ‘Where put?’ ‘Where take?’ ‘Where get?’
Models
| 1) | EXINTW̱ SW̱ OĆE? | ‘Where do you put it?’ |
| 2) | TX̱INTW̱ SW̱ OĆE? | ‘Where do you take it?’ |
| 3) | ĆSE¸EXINTW̱ SW̱ OĆE? | ‘Where do you get it?’ |
‣ 1 These models should look familiar. Compare these to the models in §25.1.
‣ 2 The verbs in these models are the same as the verbs in the models in §25.1, but the causative suffix, ‑TW̱ has been added. This suffix makes a verb transitive, so each of these models implies a direct object.
‣ 3 The causative suffix adds the meaning ‘cause to.’
EXIN ‘where at?’ + ‑TW̱ means ‘where cause to be at?’ or ‘where put?’
TX̱IN ‘where to?’ + ‑TW̱ means ‘where cause to go to?’ or ‘where take?’
ĆSE¸EXIN ‘where from?’ + ‑TW̱ means ‘where cause to be from?’ or ‘where get?’
‣ 4 There are other suffixes in SENĆOŦEN that also provide the ‘cause’ meaning. This ‘cause’ idea and the other suffixes that have the ‘cause’ meaning are discussed in detail in §40.
