Naish-Story:
héen- + ya-ya-tee Notes:
While the 3rd person perfective habitual negative form: tlél héent ayawootéeych is grammatical, it is a little semantically odd, meaning "s/he hasn't baptized him/her yet". Speakers prefer the 4th person form: tlél héent yadutéeych "s/he hasn't been baptized yet".
