In Jacobs’ slip-file dictionary, the Milluk
word is [ qɫa ] while the Hanis word is [ qɫa· ]. The transcription [ qɫa· ] is one of the ways
that the word shows up in the Milluk texts. Lolly’s Coos Bay Milluk version of this word shows the regular sound
correspondence of Coos Bay Milluk having k which corresponds to Annie Miner
Peterson’s Milluk
having q. This particular word in Hanis does not follow the regular sound correspondence that Hanis shares with
neighboring Coos Bay Milluk that we see with a number of other words.
