PSUA ''*hikʷɨyawa'' "[[heart]], [[breath]], [[life force]]" is a stem, composed of two roots ''*[[hikʷɨ(s)]]'' probably meaning "breath"  and the suffix ''*[[-yawa]]'', which seems to have been used to derive abstract nouns referring to something like an essence or the "property of being X", something like the suffix ''-ness'' in English, or indeed the cognate suffix ''-yo:tl'' in Colonial Nahuatl (Launey 19????). The literal meaning of PSUA ''*hikʷɨyawa'' thus seems to have been something like "it's breathness" (inalienably possessed), referring to the life force of a living entity.
