Sorry -- I should have given you this information. Yes, it's the full
dictionary as published, minus the shiny, pretty cover. I've spotted a
few errors -- there are sure to be more -- and made corrections since
publication, and added a lot more examples. I'll put out an errata
sheet before I leave in July, and I'll replace the current pdf with an
updated one then, too. Keep in mind that this is a practical
orthography, so certain aspects of the phonology aren't obvious. Bob
Rankin and I are beginning work on a grammar that will use a truly
phonemic writing system -- which, needless to say, won't be completed
by July, but will get done before to long.
If any of you are working in SIL's Language Explorer and run into
problems, feel free to write to me at my Kaw Nation address:
lcumberland at kawnation.com, in case it's something I grappled with.
There are certainly kinks in the program, but in the end, it served us
well.
Linda
