Other comments: Tlicho or Dogrib now is called Wıı̀lıı̀deh Yatıı̀, is spoken by approximately 2,100 speakers in Dettah, Ndılǫ, and Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada, has a decimal system with substructures for numbers 6 to 8. The thousand ''lemi'' is a loan from French. The American Phonetic symbols used here areː Nasalization is indicated with a ''hook'' underneath the vowel Nasalization is indicated with a ''hook'' underneath the vowels, uses a few digraphs in place of single letters, and also nasality is written below the vowel, instead of on top. This language has contrastive nasality and four contrastive tones (high, low, rising, and falling), double vowel, e.g. "oo" is a long vowel [o:]. Thus, a falling tone is written as óo in Tetsǫ́ǫt'ıné and oò ın Wıı̀lıı̀deh, whıle a rısıng tone ıs wrıtten oó ın Tetsǫ́ǫt'ıné and òo ın Wıı̀lıı̀deh: one languages is "high marked" while the other is "low marked," so the default tone is left unwritten in each language. The digraphs are: gh = velar or uvular voiced fricative sh = alveopalatal voiceless fricative zh = alveopalatal voiced fricative th = interdental voiceless fricative dh = interdental voiced fricative, etc. |
