land=mother

[Anthony Grant]

Folks:

My understanding is that in Caddo ina' is confined to 'my mother' and that the normal stem for 'mother' is quite different (is it /sa:sin/ or is my memoy playing tricks on me?).  Caddo has such a low percentage of cogantes with any other Caddoan language that the original Proto-Cadoan form may just now be attested in Wichita, Kitsai, etc.  

Anthony.
