No Siouan language has glottalized n's. How, exactly, did Dorsey write this? Could your glottal just be an accent mark? What Dorsey source is this? Bob

John, Mark:
Dorsey provided a term: n?aNwe, adj., "rich as in greasy food. wayuwe n?aNwe ke, the marrow is rich.
There are no N + glottal in IOM. I checked in Radin's materials and found for "greasy".
RADIN = sara, sarak, dasaraxji.
MINER= taasára(xjiN) "greasy of kettles"
SWEATLAND = we'gathi (grease); shnishnide the ~ gaxe
What do you suggest in the original IOM word?
Jimm
