I'm not sure I see it.  If anything, these sound like something a Beginner's Grammarian would call themselves in jest.

How about bampu'wI'?
or:
bamta'wI'
bamchu'wI'
or what fine-tuning is appropriate.

 I am trying to find a pair of relatively simple words that I can use to label  people as the equivalent of rookies (it's their first  time experiencing something) or veterans (they've been  through it before). 
 
 I  like {chu'wI'} "newcomer", but I can't decide what to use as its counterpart. Have any of  you ever needed this kind of distinction, and if so, did you  come up with anything satisfactory?
