Lakota demonstratives

[Wablenica]

Talking about "ka-" demonstratives, they are not widely used in Deloria's
Dakota Texts either.
Here are the frequencies:

he' - le' - ka' -  712 : 233 : 20
hena' - lena' - kana' 137 : 30 : 2
he'l - le'l - ka'l  94 : 45 : 35
he'tu - le'tu - ka'tu 7 : 4 : 1
he'cha - le'cha 41 : 0
he'chel - le'chel - ka'khel 101 : 48 : 39
he'checa - le'checa - kakheca 10 : 3 : 0
he'chetu - le'chetu - ka'khetu 39 : 1 : 0
he'chiya - le'chiya - ka'khiya 28 : 6 : 12

I wonder, is "yonder" a frequent word in present-day American English?

Connie.
