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
