teha harret [_there is not anything_]; _or_, war ekémăret.

_Zéksak_, careless for _seksak_? root _saksak_, cram, press. Comp.
Greek, σαγ.
_Teshílge_, differently accented in 139. 146.
_Arēl_, the right. (These two words differ from the Kab.) _Arīl-n-eshel_
is the _noon_ of day, _i.e._ the _upright_?
_Ekémăret_ is filled? It seems to me an Arabic feminine form, corrupt
for _ʿamaret_, which Delaporte uses.]

gíak, dag tēt-n-el barūd.

Qu. He hit me in the _left eye-tooth_?
_Tan_, fem. demonst. = _tinni_ of Kab. Elsewhere, _tēn_ and _tindagh,
illa_.]

[Note: _Toke_, 52; _ukaine_, 66.
