two terminations, one ending in koose, and the other imk, as neme- koose and netnimk, I arn seen. Intermedial or Interlocutory verbs express the idea of relation¬ ship and representation; the agent becomes a medium of conveyance between two others. The simple verb keloose, I speak, not only be¬ comes keloodumelsaowse, I speak for myself, but also keloodumelsaool. I speak of thee. Impersonal or Unipersonal verbs are used more freely than in English; there was among the Micmacs such a feeling of awe and mystery regarding the phenomena of nature; we ftn& pasak, it snows, kikpasak, it rains, k&kloogwak, it thunders, w&sogwodesak, it lightens, wobuneak, day breaks, and many others all ending in ak. Substantival Verbs are simply inflected substantives, as ulnooe, I am a man, (ulnoo), which is inflected throughout to take the place of the copula as used in other languages; for there is no copula in Mic- mac. Substantival verbs denote possession and property, which may also be expressed by words in apposition; as nootc ukwis, and kel- awootceoknen wegisin, you are my father and I am your son. A large class of verbs may be denominated trans-substantival, for they indicate that one substance is transformed into another. There are three classes: (a), simple, indicating a complete change from one inanimate substance to another, as in the expression viostow sabooddega, I change snow into water, andpebenokun awakawadega, I change bread into flesh; (b), when the subject or object is animate, as elegawalool, I make thee a king; ulnooalool, I make (create) a man of you; and (c), when the transformation is on account of or for some person, self or other, as pebenokun awakamalok, I change bread into his flesh (church rite), and pebenokun awakawaluse', I transform bread into my own flesh. Adjectival Verbs are not without precedent in other languages, the Micmac sabazve, I am righteous, wise, closely resembles the Latin sapio; and epse, I am warm, is used like Latin caleo; from these easily spring the class of inceptive verbs, keloose, I am good, becoming keloosea, I begin to be good. The adjective kesegoo gives us kesegooe, I am old, and kesegooea, I am growing old. Mental verbs are represented by welae, I am well, weledase, I
