57. Illustrations of the causative: Bont., from the Story of the Stars: "The mother made the brother fly" = Made + f. m. b. = inpatayaw ina kawwaan. Bug., from the Injilai: "He made them go aboard his vessel" = He made + mount them in ship his = na panoq i ri lopi na. Mentaway, from the Dialogues about the Priesthood: "They make them healthy" = Make -f healthy = paäru.
Note. — In inpatayaw the in- is the sign of the past tense. The WB of panoq is noq, "to mount up into".
