You were, You got

To say You were VERBED or You got VERBED in Halq'eméylem, you add an ending -ó:m onto the verb. Here are some examples. 


(2) (a) Chexw píwet. You froze it. (b) Píwethó:m. You got frozen.

(c) Chexw máyt. You helped him/her. (d) Máythó:m.  You were helped.

(e) Chexw íwest. You taught him/her. (f) Íwesthó:m. You were taught.


Note that if the verb ends in a -t (as in the examples above), then the t also becomes a th before this -ó:m ending.
