105. _I follow thee_, nek elkamăkay.

_Follow him_, elkemt.

_I obey or follow_, nek elilal [elilagh].

_Does El Khadĭr obey the orders of Alkúttabu?_ El Khadír elīl

Alkúttăbu?

_He does not obey him_, war ýilkĕmit.

_I refuse to submit to thee_, nek ugarăghak sérhu.

_That tribe has revolted against their chief_, tausit tādagh

(tindegh) _irhēt_ amanōkal nissen.

[Note: _Elkem_ in Kab. “arrive.” Qu. may _ilkem_, “pertinuit,” explain

the double use?

_Serhu_, victory, primacy. _Yūgar_ (Shilha and Kab.) “it exceeds,” and

so once (I think) in Barth. Thus _ugaraghak serhu_ may seem to mean

“supero tibi præstantiam.”

_Irhēt_. Barth suspects it should be “_war irhēt_,” loves not. Final _t_

is then useless. May not _t_ be radical, and _irhat_ mean _dejecit,

excussit_?

_Amanōkal_, chief. _Tinmokolen_, they invest their chief, 125. _Atkēl_,

government (spelt تكل by Ben Músa). These words, with the term “kél,”

seem peculiar to Temáshight.]
