Definition/Cultural Note


- we have only one record of this word in the collection from Arrito/Snell - an important source because it was recorded well before the mission period, but it has several errors.- another word is also recorded for yesterday.- warri might have somehow got confused with warri meaning west; wind. Or it could be an alternative word for yesterday, perhaps one of them borrowed from another language.
