Dear Corpora colleagues, after computing the frequency of occurrence of Haida, an Amerindian language of North America, I took some texts in Oneida, an AmerIndian language of Canada. Still, I don't know if Haida or Oneida were computed. I took the book by Karin Michelson "Three stories in Oneida", National Museum of Man, 1981. I wonder if anybody knows the e-mail of Karin Michelson since I need adviced on Oneida phonetics.I wonder if "kw" is one phoneme or a combination of two phonemes. The same phoneme in the Mansi (Vogul) language of Siberia is considered as one phoneme by some linguists and as a combination of "k" and "w" by the others. Is Oneida an agglutinative or incorporating? To what family does it belong? Looking forward to hearing to my new address yutamb@mail.ru Yours sincerely Yuri Tambovtsev, Novosibirsk, Russia
