So it's doubly inflected, once on each stem, regular on guN, and r-stem
(without pleonastic regular) on the second. Like Dhegiha, except for the
guN stem being regular. Different from Winnebago, except that Winnebago
also has guN regular. You could argue that -ra was lost or hasn't been
added. Except for that roo= (hiro-) Winnebago is like Dakotan, too. Kind
of an unusual isogloss, though hard to definitively read into PMV.
