Instant Phonetic Englishization: Like the English word ‘goth’, but instead
of putting the tongue between the teeth and making a voiceless fricative
sound, the tongue is in position to make the consonant L, to make a voiceless
fricative sound. Annie Miner
Peterson’s voiced uvular consonant is farther back in the throat.

There are quite a few other examples of
this sound correspondence where Lolly Metcalf’s Coos Bay Milluk velar
consonant, in this case a voiced velar stop consonant [ g ], corresponds to
Annie Miner Peterson’s uvular consonant, which in this case is a voiced uvular
stop consonant [ ɢ ]. In our modernized
Americanist transcriptions we redundantly put a dot under the modern phonetic
symbol for a voiced uvular stop consonant [ ɢ ] to make it more like Jacobs’ old-fashioned
dot put under a lower case letter g.
