Based on cognates for dung, little/young, to sing, to sleep, and to stab, add
zh > y to Chiwere (Ch) in Table IV, p. 11 under Proto-Siouan *y. Thus, "r"
splits into two phonemes "r, zh > y."
The Degihans have pointed out my erroneous use of ch and dh in Osage. Remove
the v over c and j for Osage. Please let me know if my Osage orthography
needs other modifications.
Thanks for your inputs, your comments are much appreciated.
