Reduplication in Cheyenne is a process in which the first syllable of a stem (or part of that syllable) is repeated. There is often a vowel change and/or a shift in the pitch. See the technical description of Cheyenne reduplication, with examples of different classes of this morphological process, in E. Leman (??). Semantically, reduplication generally "extends" the meaning of a verb stem, for example, through indicating that an action (or quality) is done by(or asserted of) plural participants, to plural recipients, on repeated occasions (iteratively), or in a kind of intensive fashion. One interesting semantic subcategory is that some reduplication typically implies something negative: cf. Oxo- 'what say' and nóoo- 'say bad things'; -tónėstá'tov 'how act toward s.o. and -totónėstá'tov 'act badly toward s.o.'; -ho'ēsta 'answer' and -nonó'está 'sass, talk back'.

Tsé-tsėhéstȧhese Cheyenne people. (another recording) Simplified Spelling Tsitsistas. Tsés-tsėhéstȧhése you (plural) Cheyennes. The preceding form could refer, for example, to the way you believe, as different from other tribes; cf. Tsé-tsėhéstȧhése 'you (plural) Cheyennes'). Tsés-tsėhéstȧhétse we Cheyennes. [1987:12, also Why Alcohol Is Not Sold to Cheyennes.007] The literal meaning of this word is uncertain. Various etymologies have often been suggested. Grinnell's statement is typical: "They call themselves Tsistsistas, which the books commonly give as meaning "people." It probably means related to one another, similarly bred, like us, our people, or us. The Rev. Rodolphe Petter has pointed out that it may be translated "cut people," "gashed people," for the two words are nearly alike. This last meaning is practically that given them on the prairie by whites and Indians alike, and evidently comes from the distant sign which they used to designate themselves, which means "cut arms." If one is speaking by signs to a Cheyenne close at hand and asks his tribe, he will make on the back of the left forward-directed forefinger two or three diagonal cross lines drawn toward his body with the right forefinger, and this is often explained as "striped feathers"- referring to those used on the arrows. The sign at a distance is, as said, that for "cut arms," but that sign has been misinterpreted by the Blackfeet, who have mistaken it for the somewhat similar sign for "spotted," and call the Cheyenne "spotted people," a designation which seems without appropriate meaning." (from George Bird Grinnell, The Cheyenne Indians, Volume I, 1923, pp. 3-4) A plausible linguistic explanation of the term shows the similarity between étsėhéstahe 'he is a Cheyenne' and éhéstahe 'he is from there, he originates from there' (cf. éhesta 'he is that way'); the former perhaps having the tse- cataphoric (or pointing) deictic preverb. If this is actually the case, then the literal meaning of étsėhéstahe would be 'he is this way from there'. Inclusion of the cataphoric deictic may have been due to the frequent use of the hand sign to indicate 'Cheyenne'. Petter, in his 1915 dictionary, page 582,seems to adopt this explanation of the term. If this hypothesis is correct then the tribal name, Tsétsėhéstȧhese (Tsitsistas), would be literally translated as something like 'those who are this way from there' or, in freer terms, 'the people' or 'those who are of that group', in line with Grinnell's initial remarks above.) Some Cheyennes also point out the similarity between Tsétsėhestȧhese 'Cheyennes' and tsétsėhestase 'those who are like this'.

Tsétsėhéstaestse   vai. Gram: ppl Cheyenne person. Simplified Spelling Tsitsistaists, Zizistaisz; Plural Tsétsėhéstȧhese; Obviative Tsétsėhéstȧhétsese. The plural is the Cheyenne name for themselves; its literal meaning is uncertain; see discussion under -tsėhéstahe. A longterm helpful spelling for the plural, 'Cheyennes', is Tsitsistas. See: -tsėhéstahe ‘be a Cheyenne’; Tsitsistas ‘Cheyennes’; Tsėhésenėstsestȯtse ‘Cheyenne language’. Category: tribes.

Tsétsėhéstȧhese   vai. Gram: ppl Cheyennes. (another recording) Simplified Spelling Tsitsistas, Tsetsestas, Zizistas, Zizisdas; Singular Tsétsėhéstaestse; vai: -tsėhéstahe. This spelling is technically correct using the modern Cheyenne alphabet but it is very difficult to read. And it is often difficult for newspapers and other printing places to print. An acceptable popular spelling for this conjunct plural participle is Tsitsistas. If a popular spelling is used (such as for non-technical writing), one should be aware that the spelling Tsistsistas is not a common pronunciation. This latter spelling has been used fairly often in printed material--it has a different meaning from Tsitsistas. Forms which begin as Tsit... or, in the modern orthography used throughout this dictionary, as Tset..., are conjunct participles, which are most accurately translated as English relative clauses, for example, Tsétsėhéstaestse (popular spellings Tsitsistaists, Zizistaisz, or Zezestaesz) 'the one who is a Cheyenne (that is, a Cheyenne person)'; Tsétsėhéstȧhese (popular spellings Tsitsistas or Zizistas or Zezestas) 'those who are Cheyennes (i.e. Cheyenne people); Tsétȧhéstȧhéto 'I who am a Cheyenne'. Forms which begin with Tsést... (or in popular spelling, Tsist... or Zesz...), are non-participle conjunct verbs, which are translated as English adverbial phrases, for example, Tséstsėhéstȧhévȯse 'since they are Cheyennes, because they are Cheyennes', Tséstsėhéstȧhéto 'because I am a Cheyenne', etc. A number of Cheyennes have pointed out that this word may have derived from tsétsėhestase 'those who are like this', with sign language pointing to the skin on their forearm: tsétsėhestase those who are like this. vai: -tsėhéstahe. See: tsétsėhestase; Tsėhéstáno. Category: tribes.

tsétsėhestase   vai. Gram: cjt those who are this way. A number of Cheyennes have pointed out that this sounds similar to the word for 'Cheyenne people', Tsétsėhéstȧhese (simpler spelling Tsitsistas), which they suggest may be derived from this word: Tsétsėhéstȧhese those who are Cheyennes. See: -hesta ‘be so ; be that way’. Category: identity.
