DORSEY SLIPS

[Jimm G. GoodTracks]

Thanks Mark!  I have not come across a similar term in IOM.  The fact the JOD uses it in his IOM materials suggests to me that he too, did not find an IOM equivalent.
P.S.  Did you, Catherine or Rory get down to the Dhegiha conference at Quapaw?  If so, what is your assessment as to its worth and potential?

Aloha Jimm,

Here is Dorsey's explanation of the term from the Omaha and Ponca Digital Dictioanry slip image.

Best,

Mark Awakuni-Swetland

On the IOM Dorsey vocabulary slips/ Clan information, JOD has written the name of a person with their associated clan.  However in some cases, he writes after the name the following:  "a nikie name."

 

Perhaps, Mark who has more recent than anyone worked with the JOD mnscpts, understand this notation.  It is not comprehensible from IOM language.

 

Thanks
