n. neck of a flint blade; fly trap
Var.: (saqutałtǝ)
1. ts̓ił ’is’aqutałtǝ, 'the trap for flies.'
2. hešu’u’liš ’an ts̓ił ’isaqutałtǝ, 'this handle is for trapping flies.'
Morph.: [<ts- (3.poss) + ’- (nz) + aquti- (instr.interfering) + al- (stat) + tǝl ()>]
Cross References: Notes: This neck was said to be about 3in (7.6cm) long; the overall blade, including the handle, was about 10in (25.4cm) long, and the blade was lashed between two ends of a split stick. With regard to trapping flies, it is uncertain if the use of this word comes from the resemblance of the flint blade to a fly swatter.
