The Stoney pattern, then, is similar in spirit to that of the Northern
Interior Salishan languages, which appear to have switched from an ancestral
root-based pattern to one trailing off to the right flank including suffixed
materials, following shift from original root-stress system. Areally
interesting, if there may have been intervening languages with similar
stories- anyone know of the Algonkian in between? Kutenay doesn't have any
active reduplicative contructions (second hand p.c. from Larry Morgan) as far
as I can tell. Thanks!
