Next in the taxonomy from the unique
beginner is the life form level containing
two terms: phii(2) ‘ghost’ and winyaan
‘spirit’. They are in contrast with each
other and are both immediate
subcategories of the unique beginner.
Analysis of the meanings of the terms
(See Table 4) and the informants’
judgment confirm this. All of the
interviewees said both phii(2) ‘ghost’
and winyaan ‘spirit’ are included in
phii(1) ‘ghost+ spirit.’
