Going back to the question on the directional words in Tutelo-Saponi. I have taken the advice here and come up with the following let me know if it is correct or not.
 
the West = to:ka: mi hi:yata
 
mi = sun
to:ka: = where
hi:yata = sleep

 
There is a lowercase "h" between k and a in to:ka: but I do not have a font for that nor do I understand the ":" part of the word.
 
 
 
Also would East then be to:ka: mi kle:?
 
kle: = awake
