By a careful analytical process I have been able to decompose the compound words, and even reach their monosyllabic roots. All the long words can be thus analyzed, and show that this compound form only arises, as usual in American languages, by the blunders of the Spanish writers, who wrote long words instead of short ones; blending articles and affixes. The Haytian thus analyzed and reduced is a very simple language, approximating to the primitive and oriental forms, wherein short monosyllables of generic import, formed the base of the speech, and became modified by union and relative position. By these means the following essential roots of the language have been collected, and are given to help future similar investigations of American languages. Examples of composition. _Cazabi_ Bread. _Ca-za-bi_ soil-fruitful-life. _Manati_ Sea cow. _Ma-na-ti_ great-thing-eminent. _Turei_ Heaven. _T’ur-ei_ Thou-light-be. _Furzidi_ Cloudy. _Fur-zi-di_ gloom-it-is-day. (or now) _Areiti_ Song, rites. _A-rei-ti_ of reality eminent. _Nanichi_ Soul. _Na-ni-chi_ thing the active. _Maroyo_ Moon. _Ma-ro-yo_ great lovely. 74 essential monosyllabic roots of this language or genera of ideas.
