The word \u1405\u14f5\u1405\u1505\u1484<\/span> usaauskw<\/span> brown bear<\/span> is made from the initial \u1405\u14f5\u1424<\/span> usaau-<\/span> brown<\/span> and a shorter form of the noun \u14aa\u1505\u1484<\/span> maskw<\/span> bear<\/span>. A short form like \u1505\u1484<\/span> -skw<\/span> cannot be used on its own, but only when attached to something else.<\/p>\r\n

Many animal names occur with both a long form and, when modified, a short form.<\/p>\r\n
