Tutelo-Saponi/Yesanechi Word For Sweat

[Rankin, Robert L.]

Hi Scott,

I'm going to have to check into that.  The consonant cluster -xkt- should not be possible in a Siouan word, so something is amiss here.

The G. is for the Albert S. Gatschet manuscript of Biloxi vocabulary.  I assume the 41 is a page number.

DS 229 is Dorsey and Swanton's 1912 publication, p. 229.

The Gatschet recording would be pronounced roughly "hah-miHk-teddy".  The a with two dots over it is like "eh".

I'm not sure we ever got around to a proto-Siouan word for 'sweat', but I'll check it out.

Best,

Bob

Also I saw a note by Kauffman in the Biloxi dictionary as such "hamixktädi"

"2. n. Sweat, perspiration.
G. hamixktädi 41.
DS. 229."

Is this word pronounced hameece-toady or homice-toddy?

Also what would the Proto-Siouan word for sweat be?

What is G. and 41.? and what is DS. 229?
