63. _I go fast_, égelegh shik.

_I make my horse trot_, eshisheriwuēgh aïsin.

_I keep back my horse_, esamásănagh aïsin.

_I make him gallop_, etegeriwuēgh aïsin.

_I take a ride_, ushírgeshagh; adsummorómaragh.

[Note: _Eshisheriwuēgh, etegeriwuēgh_, seem to show _wuēgh_ as marking

the 1st person of a causative verb, when the root ends in _au_.

_Shisherau_, perhaps, denotes frequentative alternative movement, nearly

as _sheresherau_, to work the pump-handle.

_Esámăsan_, causative, from _amăsan?_

_Etegeriwūegh_ (I set loose?) has _et_ to mark present tense. I make the

root _igherau_, it is easy: whence _egheraugh_, I am easier,

_yeherowen_, easy; _iharowen_, spacious.

_Adsummorómaragh_ seems to be a causative from a frequentative root

_mormor_. _Ad_ marks present time.]

_We have got on the sand_, urannar-n-akal.

[Note: _Tarásănagh_ (from _yarăsan_,) he touched? he grazed? _Tursar_

(211.), ran aground.]
