níłchʼi in All languages combined

IPA: /nɪ́ɬt͡ʃʼɪ̀/ [Show additional information ▼] [Hide additional information ▲]

Etymology: From níchʼi (“to blow”, perfective) + ł- (classifier), from -chʼi (perfective verb stem describing the movement of a current of air), from Proto-Athabaskan *tšʼʷəy ~ *tšʼʷi, from Pre-Proto-Athabaskan *kʼʷəy (“wind blows”). An air current is conceived as a moving thing, and the perfective form marking its arrival is the equivalent of the English present progressive “it is blowing.” Etymology templates: {{m|nv|yíchʼííh|níchʼi|to blow|pos=perfective}} níchʼi (“to blow”, perfective), {{m|nv|ł-|pos=classifier}} ł- (classifier), {{m|nv|-chʼi|pos=perfective verb stem describing the movement of a current of air}} -chʼi (perfective verb stem describing the movement of a current of air), {{der|nv|ath-pro|*tšʼʷəy ~ *tšʼʷi}} Proto-Athabaskan *tšʼʷəy ~ *tšʼʷi, {{m+|ath-pro|*kʼʷəy||wind blows}} Proto-Athabaskan *kʼʷəy (“wind blows”), {{m|nv|ł-}} ł- Head templates: {{head|nv|noun}} níłchʼi Forms: no-table-tags [table-tags], shiníłchʼi [first-person, singular], nihiníłchʼi [duoplural, first-person], danihiníłchʼi [first-person, plural], niníłchʼi [second-person, singular], nihiníłchʼi [duoplural, second-person], danihiníłchʼi [plural, second-person], biníłchʼi [third-person], yiníłchʼi [fourth-person], haníłchʼi [fourth-person], aníłchʼi [indefinite]
