<DIV><BR></DIV>Miami does this too: note <I>mihtekolaakani </I>"wooden box,
trunk, thousand (dollars)".<BR><BR>> <BR>> In Kaw it is /z^aN:-kkoge/,
accent on the 1st syllable. Silver dollars were <BR>> transported in
crates of 1000 each. OP should be the same except that /o/ <BR>>
raises to [u]. z^aN: is 'wood', kko'ge is 'box' (something hollow).

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