The Interrogative Pronouns akieyi, aweyi, &c., may appear without the Prefix a-, kieyi, weyi, &c. The Prefix a- adds force to the question, and evidences a desire or need to know. In making an inquiry as to the comparative size, &c., of several things, the things are stated, and the question may then be framed as though the things were persons ; that is to say, Personal Pronouns and even Nouns may be used in the question ; the Interrogative Pronoun proper to the Class of the things may also be used, instead of the Personal Interrogative.
