This is an updated version of an e-text originally produced inNovember 2006; see end of text for notes.
The e-text consists of two separately published books:
Spellings for the Schools in the Chipeway Language
Sketch of Grammar of the Chippeway Language
In the first book (Spellings...), the hyphen - is used to separatesyllables. In the second book (Grammar...) the hyphen seems torepresent the glottal stop.
In the word lists of the first book, the first entry in each columnwas sometimes— but not consistently— capitalized. Thiscapitalization has been retained, whether or not the e-text layoutreplicates the original.
A few punctuation marks in the paradigms and vocabulary lists havebeen supplied or regularized. Other errors and anomalies are noted withmouse-hover popups.Bracketed text is in the original.
