27 Paths
All languages have means of expressing paths—how one gets from one place to another. For example, ‘I went from Sidney to Victoria,’ ‘I went by canoe,’ ‘I went to Malahat by ferry,’ ‘I went through Becher Bay to Sooke,’ and so on. §26 covered how to say you are going to or coming from places in SENĆOŦEN. This section how to link places with ways of getting there.
In linking places on a journey, there are three basic path elements that can be expressed: source, where the journey starts; way, the route or mode of travel; and destination, where the journey ends. In §27.1 the expression of source and destination are described. In §27.2 it is the expression of the way and source.
