Hočąk Text — Twins Disobey Their Father (v. 2)

The manuscript is in the hand of Paul Radin, the Hočąk line is written in bolder letters with a different writing implement than was used for the English lines. In general, the MS is not difficult to read. About 50% of the hand written interlinear text has no English translation, but almost all of the untranslated words could be found elsewhere. Radin also used symbolic abbreviations for common whole words or syllables some of which he interpreted here and in other manuscripts, although there are some whose values are unknown. The symbols used in the text appear on the table below:

α	β	γ	ɜ	θ	λ
égi	éja	giži	šaną	žigé*	žesge

*connected to this phrase by a line from the top of the page is, "i.e. a dryad". The word nočížą comes from ną, "tree, wood"; hočí, "to dwell"; and -ižą, the indefinite article; and so means, "a tree-dweller". This is certainly what in translation is called a "Wood Spirit".

*between the letter /a/ and [ϕ] a /k/ is superscripted, clearly indicating that the suffix -gadją which follows is to be given a /k/ in place of its /g/.
†the word "pleasurable" is followed by a vertical line (apparently to separate it from the next phrase). The word "but" appears to have been written afterward, as it is found between the vertical line and the next word's translation ("you're asleep"). It properly answers to the -gają of the previous Hočąk word.
‡after this word, another word of three letters has been heavily crossed out.
