Quapaw Language Question

[Rankin, Robert L]

I'm afraid this doesn't ring any Quapaw bells with me.  Is it supposed to have some particular meaning?

These words, ne de wa ha, sound like, naw daw waw hay.

Hey Scott,

Can you give English words that roughly rhyme with these syllables?  That way I won't have to guess at the vowel sounds.

Thanks,

Bob

I was wondering if someone may know if "ne de wa ha" or "na da wa hey" has any similarity in the Quapaw language. I am uncertain if I'm spelling this correctly.
