In Kaw it is /z^aN:-kkoge/, accent on the 1st syllable.  Silver dollars were transported in crates of 1000 each.  OP should be the same except that /o/ raises to [u].  z^aN: is 'wood', kko'ge is 'box' (something hollow).

Dear all:

What's the correct spelling of the word for 1000 in Dhegiha, specifically OP, please?  I'm thinking of the one which means 'box'. (Though as I'm a numerals fan, any others are welcome.)

Thanks

Anthony
