ega ⁿ compounds in Omaha and Ponca

[Bryan James Gordon]

Howdy all, especially Dhegihanists!

Has anyone ever compiled a list of all the various uses of the
e+gaⁿmorphemes together in Ponca or Omaha (or any other Dhegiha
language)? As we
all know, this combination occurs in conjunctions, adverbs, referential
pronominal-thingies and verbs of various predicative and quotative sorts,
and there is debate as to whether gaⁿ is a single morpheme given nifty
collocations like ðégimaⁿ "I do thus". Anyone got a list as a starting point
for further investigation?
