[Spam:0007 SpamScore] Re: Dakotan T-words and there equivalents in Siouan

[Rankin, Robert L]

Bruce,
 
I suspect you didn't get the Quapaw set, as both those below are the Kaw.  I sent the Quapaw set to a slightly different email address that was in my Address Book -- it must have been one you were using last year.  Maybe it is your wife's email address.
 
I'll try to resend the Quapaw from my "sent messages file".

the Kaw, when I was trying to fit it all into my data.
 I now think I know what is Kaw, after Justin's
intervention, but I'm but sure which is the Quapaw.
Below is what I have got down.  Could you let me know
if I'm very wrong anywhere.  Don't worry about the
transcription if it comes out looking nonsensical at
the other end.  I think it is OK this end
