It truly is a draft still. The thing that will be clear from the <br>> get go is that I'm trying make it for the native community, not for the <br>> professionals. So it may be a little annoying to have my attempts to teach<br>a <br>> few terms, and there may be better ways to explain things than I have done<br><br>> so far. And my hope of having an annotated text with the digital file to <br>> accompany it frame by frame hasn't been realized yet, so the appendix is <br>> empty. The papers I gave at WhiteCloud and Lincoln are the texts referenced<br><br>> there.<br>> <br>> Also, I have not put in the consonant clusters (it will be a tedious chore)<br><br>> in the phonology section. Is that really necessary for this kind of <br>> document? And representing the irregular verb paradigms is another chore<br>not <br>> finished. But, I think I'm stuck without some feedback.<br>> <br>> I don't know there are too many ideas to steal, other than dropping the <br>> standard IJAL outline that I really hate. I just could not keep doing the <br>> 1.1.a stuff :).<br>> <br>> Thanks - I think it will be okay - he's in a wing of the dorms devoted to<br><br>> Honors freshmen exclusively, so the geeks can all hang out together and <br>> hopefully not get beat up!<br>> <br>> I don't know where it went, but I'm hoping for a rainy fall to bring back <br>> some green somewhere. It was good to see you, and I sorry I didn't jump in<br><br>> and make it to the early dinner Saturday night. If I had the nerve to go <br>> dancing, I'd have jumped right in there, but I confess I really don't know<br><br>> how, and was a little worried I'd end up being a "5th wheel." That entire <br>> conference I was out of sorts - running behind on getting my paper<br>together, <br>> and not getting it quite to a decent form. I wish the conference were later<br><br>> in the summer, since that's pretty much my only time for doing any language<br><br>> work. I love the ideas and folks, but always manage to say more than I <br>> should and then spend the drive home feeling I need to apologize to half of<br><br>> my fellow Siouanists :(. I'm working on the tongue control issue in many <br>> aspect of life.<br>> <br>> Enough of my blathering. I have one more syllabus to finish before Monday!<br>> <br>> Best,<br>> Jill<br>> <br>> P.S. Our home computer where I wrote this has Vista, and there may be some<br><br>> font issues.<br>> From: Siouan Linguistics [mailto:SIOUAN@listserv.unl.edu] On Behalf Of <br>> Catherine Rudin<br>> Sent: Wednesday, August 15, 2012 12:09 PM<br>> To: SIOUAN@listserv.unl.edu <br>> Subject: Re: NAME<br>> <br>> Jill,<br>> I'd like to take a look at your grammar sketch too.<br>> Mark and I need to do one to go with the OP dictionary. It's possible I'll <br>> have some useful comments for you -- I'll do my best! -- but mostly hope to<br>steal <br>> some of your ideas.<br>> <br>> Good luck to your baby boy in college!

I've never seen it. Linda and I are thinking about doing<br><br>> a full fledged Kaw grammar. It would be great to see what you are doing.<br>> <br>> > A few corrections and additions have been made to the version that's on <br>> Jimm's site now, but I want to get it in near final form before we change<br>it <br>> out again, and it's always nice to have someone else's eye (not to mention <br>> brain) take a look.<br>> <br>> <br>> <br>> This email may contain identifiable personal information that is subject to<br><br>> protection under state and federal law.
