'ego', 'alter' 'now', 'not now' 'bony fish', 'elasmobranch' 'human', 'animal', 'wood' (incl. woody plants), 'stone' 'vegetable food', 'meat/food', 'liquid', 'sea mammal', 'land mammal' 'harm (affect harmfully)', 'act', 'see', 'hear, feel', 'be (in a place)', 'burn', 'spear', 'die, decay', 'fall; the cardinal directions' 'point on body', 'surface on body', 'head', 'eye', 'hand, foot' 'one, another; place', 'two; hither, close; short' Antonymic derivation with : 'small', 'large' 'one', 'many' 'short', 'long' 'light', 'heavy' Specific reference requires paraphrasing. For example, a sandpiper is called a 'person-burning creature' ( 'human burn- animal') in reference to its role as a character in the Rainbow Serpent Story, while a wooden axe is 'wood that (negatively) affects honey' ( 'honey affect- wood') There is some suggestion of internal morphology or compounding, as suggested by the patterns in the word list above. For example, '(native) beehive, honey' and 'sp. mud crab' may derive from 'food' and 'mud shell clam'.
