Dakotan T-words and there equivalents in Siouan

[Rgraczyk at aol.com]

Bruce:

Here are some Crow forms:

sa'apa 'what'
sa'apdak 'something'
sa'apako 'from when, from where'
sape'e 'who'
sape'elak 'someone'
sho'oke 'which'
sho'o 'where'
sho'ola 'where'
sho'onnak 'somewhere'
sho'ossee 'where to'
sho'on 'where, when'
sho'ohtannak 'when (future)'
sho'ohtaleesh 'when (past'
sa'awi 'how many'
sho'ota 'how'
sho'otdak 'somehow'
sho'ohka 'to what extent'

There seem to be four basic stems:

sa'apa 'what'
sape'e 'who'
sho'o 'where'
sa'awi 'how many'

It will be interesting to see what you come up with!
