<DIV>> Probably Tutelo articles donʻt function anywhere near like Omahaʻs beautiful, powerful articles, but I am wondering if there might not be a subordinator needed there, too. The sentence feels awkward to me without. <BR>
<DIV><BR></DIV>Interesting, Ardis. I bet Tutelo does work the same way. That seems to be a standard Siouan pattern. But I'll defer to my syntactician colleagues.<BR><BR>Does Omaha use MoNhiNskithe for real sweetgrass? Sounds like a loan-translation from English. The Dakotan term has a cognate in Dhegiha, but it's the word for 'onion'. I was wondering if NE Nebraska has sweetgrass and, if so, what the Omahas and Poncas call it.<BR><BR>Best,<BR><BR>Bob<BR></DIV></DIV></DIV></DIV></DIV></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></td></tr></table>
