Ex. — Murrarag ta unni, ' this is good '; keawai, murra- rag korien, 'no, it is not good'; kipai ta unni, 'this is actually fat'; tararan, ' it is not'; this is used as the negation of a thing, but not of a quality. Keawaran bag murrarag korien, 'I am not comfortable.'
Anal.: — Keawaran, the present tense of the verb 'to be,' in the state of negation ; bag, the verbal pronoun 'I '; murrarag 'good'; korien, the aorist of negation of the verb 'to be not.' The sentence thus means, ' I am not in a state of being good.' The two negatives here are essential and govern one another; they do not destroy each other, as in English; this arises from the very nature of the language, which can ex- press actuality, negation of actuality, and negation absolutely;
