[REGINA PUSTET]

(quoting Wally Chafe)
  >I remember a Lakota speaker in Oakland telling how she heard a loud noise in 
  the night. She looked out the window "and here" (yunkhan) somebody had 
  plowed into their car. So two speakers evidently came up independently with 
  that translation.
   
  Make that four: Both of my Pine Ridge speakers independently provided ‘and here’ as their favorite translation for yuNkhaN.
