Declension

[edit]

The last speaker of Wiyot, Della Prince, used the stem loš- for all inflected forms:

Possessive declension of lóš (alienable)
Unpossessed First-person Second-person Third-person Indefinite person
lóš duhlóš khuhlóš huhlošáhl huhlošìk

There is however evidence that in some dialects, the extended lošk- was used:

Possessive declension of lóš (alienable)
Unpossessed First-person Second-person Third-person Indefinite person
lóš duhlóš khuhlóš huhloškáhl huhloškìk
