Your manner of life is good, Ke dizzihewaebizziwin onishishin. Your manner of life is better,{ Ke dizzhewaebizziwin nahwudj { onishishin. Your manner of life is best, Ke dizzhewaebizziwin mahmowee onishishin. His manner of life is best, Odizzhewaebizziwin mahmowee onishishinine. Little Turtle was brave, Mikkenokoens soengedaeaebun. Tecumseh was braver, Tecumseh nahwidj soengedaeaebun. Pontiac was bravest, Pontiac mahmowee soengedaeaebun. 3. The adjective assumes a negative form when it is preceded by the adverb. Thus the phrase soengedaeae, he is brave, is changed to, Kahween soengedaeae-see, he is not brave. _Positive_. _Negative_. Neebwaukah, Kahween neebwaukah-see, He is wise. He is not wise. Kwonaudjewe, Kahween kwonaudjewe-see, She is handsome. She is not handsome. Oskineegee, Kahween oskineegee-see, He is young. He is not young. Shaugweewee, Kahween Shaugweewee-see, He is feeble. He is not feeble. Geekkau, Kahween Geekkau-see, He is old. He is not old. Mushkowizzi, Kahween Mushkowizzi-see, He is strong. He is not strong. From this rule the indeclinable adjectives--by which is meant those adjectives which do not put on the personal and impersonal forms by inflection, but consist of radically different roots--form exceptions. Are you sick? Ke dahkoozzi nuh? You are not sick! Kahween ke dahkoozzi-see! I am happy. Ne minwaindum. I am unhappy. Kahween ne minwuinduz-see. His manner of life is bad. Mudjee izzhewabizzi. His manner of life is not bad. Kahween mudjee a izzhewabizzi-see. It is large. Mitshau muggud. It is not large. Kahween mitshau-seenoen. In these examples the declinable adjectives are rendered negative in _see_. The indeclinable, remain as simple adjuncts to the verbs, and the _latter_ put on the negative form. 4. In the hints and remarks which have now been furnished respecting the Chippewa adjective, its powers and inflections have been shown to run parallel with those of the substantive, in its separation into animates and inanimates,--in having the pronominal inflections,--in taking an inflection for tense--(a topic, which, by the way, has been very cursorily passed over,) and in the numerous, modifications to form the compounds. This parallelism has also been intimated to hold good with respect to number--a subject deeply interesting in itself, as it has its analogy only in the ancient languages, and it was therefore deemed best to defer giving examples till they could be introduced without abstracting the attention from other points of discussion.
